Food truck hire in Paddlesworth, from our truck or trailer
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. For winter staff parties and family reunions, we can serve burritos, vegan tacos and quesadillas and more.
Somewhere as small as Paddlesworth, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we will adjust where we can. December events in Paddlesworth lose the light at about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

Your questions about food truck hire in Paddlesworth
What’s the nearest station to Paddlesworth for guests?
Guests can use Snodland station, about 1.4 miles east of Paddlesworth.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Benedict's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
How many guests can the truck serve?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Where can the truck park?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
The hatch opens at the time you choose.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- A spot away from neighbours
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
