Food truck hire for Rusthall events
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
How our food truck hire works in Rusthall
You choose the hatch menu with us: tacos and burritos, with bowls, nachos or quesadillas if you like, finished with salsas and guacamole. At big birthdays and winter staff parties, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole for your guests.
For a place the size of Rusthall, food truck hire at your own home is often simplest: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Let us know about the route to the house. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Booking several street food trucks means juggling several suppliers. One Mexican truck with a varied menu keeps things simple. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Why book with us
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Menus chosen with you
- Access, space and power checked in advance
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Share your running order
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
If your timings move, let us know.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.

Questions from Rusthall
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
We are having a ceremony at St Paul's Church Centre: can you cater afterwards?
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.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan for diets before the day, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
What do you need at the venue?
A firm, level spot, a way in that fits the vehicle, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, Kent included. Find your area.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What we need at the venue
If a space is not suitable, we’ll tell you. The main points are:
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- Seating or standing room near the truck
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A hired food truck at a summer event in Rusthall can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Check our availability for your date.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Preparing for the day
