About our food truck hire in Picket Twenty
Our truck or trailer is available to hire for events across Picket Twenty and nearby, from gardens to venue grounds and business parks. It works well for wedding evening food and birthday parties, with fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and tacos from the hatch.
Near Picket Twenty, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch

How it works

- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.

Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Picket Twenty questions
Is Picket Twenty close to London?
About 62 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Picket Twenty?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan for diets before the day, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
When you hire us, the booking is yours, so we do not serve passers-by. Organisers wanting us to trade at their event can see our festival page.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
