Food truck hire for your event in Pembles Cross

For a rural spot like Pembles Cross, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
The process
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. December events in Pembles Cross lose the light at about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:15pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Give us a contact for the day

Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Count children separately
- Check gate widths and any height limits
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.

- The number of people
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
