About our food truck hire in Privett
Service is planned around your timings: a set lunch hour, an evening slot or a few hours through a party. Tell us when guests should eat and we will plan around it. It suits leaving dos and retirements and private parties in fields and grounds, serving burritos, quesadillas and tacos from the hatch.
In a hamlet or village like Privett, our food truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. You will know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A hired food truck at a summer event in Privett can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:10pm. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.

Common questions in Privett
Which station should guests use for Privett?
The closest is Petersfield station, roughly 4.7 miles away.
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Privett?
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.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Privett.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
What’s on the menu
