Food truck hire for your event in Printstile

In a small place like Printstile, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
Your questions about food truck hire in Printstile
We’re having a ceremony at Parish Church of St Lawrence: can you cater afterwards?
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 far is Printstile from London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Do you do food truck hire for weddings?
We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will go through the licensing with you and your venue.
Do you come to Printstile?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Printstile is within our area and the rest of Kent. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

How we price food truck hire
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Parking and the route in
- The number of people
- How long we are needed on site
- What’s on the menu
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Where the event is
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
To get a price, just send a quick message through our quote form. Tell us about your event in Printstile, and we’ll put together a menu and price.
Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can ask before ordering.
Ask about a second service later in the evening, quoted with the main booking.
