Food truck hire or something else?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At a festival we trade to the public; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
Why us?
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Events in Rudmore and across Portsmouth
Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Send allergy details in writing
Service starts when your timings say, and we cook each order as it comes.
Ask us about evening food later on.
How it works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Planning a private evening event in Rudmore? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June. Once it’s dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
How to prepare

Your questions about food truck hire in Rudmore
Could you serve our guests after a service at The Grapes?
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 far is Rudmore from central London?
About 64 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Can we add drinks?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. We’ll talk through licensing first.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you do food truck hire for weddings?
Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable. We will check access and timings with your venue.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
