Your questions about food truck hire in Preston Candover
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Preston Candover?
Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St. Mary the Virgin?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How many guests can the truck serve?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
How much does food truck hire cost?
Each hire is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Food truck hire or something else?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
