Food truck hire in Pett, from our truck or trailer
We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so your venue does not need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch, and it suits end-of-year celebrations and wedding receptions.
In a rural place like Pett, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Pett: parking, access and venues
Pett is about 5 miles east of Hastings, in East Sussex. For an event in Pett, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Pett. Pett is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex where we can bring food truck hire. We cater right across the region, from Pett to Royal Tunbridge Wells (about 24 miles away).
After a service at a church such as St Mary & St Peter, a hired food truck at a garden, field or venue nearby can feed everyone. Roughly 53 miles separate Pett from central London. With the coast within about 5 miles of Pett, wind is worth planning for. A sheltered, firm spot for the truck or trailer and the queue works best.
Wherever your event is in TN35, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. From Elms Lane, Pett Road and Chick Hill or a nearby road, we can bring food truck hire there, given access. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Fairlight Cove (1 mile south), Friar's Hill (1 mile west), Guestling Green (2 miles west), Fairlight (2 miles south-west) and Guestling (2 miles west). Further out, we also cater in Hastings (5 miles west), Bexhill-on-Sea (9 miles west), St Leonards (6 miles south-west), Hastings Old Town (4 miles south-west), Belmont (4 miles south-west) and Hollington (5 miles west).
Nearby you will also find Conquest Hospital (4.5 miles west) and Winchelsea Court Hall Museum (2.7 miles north-east). Not far away are Rye Harbour Nature Reserve.
- Local pubs include The Royal Oak Inn (within half a mile north-west)
The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. At midsummer, it stays light in Pett until about 9:15pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:00pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Check our availability for your date.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Preparing for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Send allergy details in writing
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Tell us what serveware you need and we’ll confirm what’s possible.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
