Food truck hire for your event in Saddlescombe
As a guide, hiring the truck or trailer suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case, so tell us how many you expect. At family reunions and back-garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls and more.
For a rural spot like Saddlescombe, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Saddlescombe: parking, access and venues
Saddlescombe is about 4 miles north of Brighton and Hove, in West Sussex. For food truck hire in Saddlescombe, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We cater in 371 places across West Sussex, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Guests leaving a church like The Church of the Holy Trinity could walk or drive to a nearby garden or hall where the truck is ready. Before you plan a private event in Waterhall, ask whoever manages it about vehicles on site. With the South Downs National Park within about 5 miles, a rural setting for your private or work event is within reach. Firm ground and a clear way in matter most for the truck or trailer. With the sea within about 6 miles, a hired food truck at a seaside venue is an option. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots normally need permission.

Your questions about food truck hire in Saddlescombe
Which station should guests use for Saddlescombe?
Guests can use Hassocks station, about 3.2 miles north-east of Saddlescombe.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Waterhall?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Saddlescombe.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
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.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
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.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Step by step
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and get on with serving.

- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
How we price food truck hire
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Distance and access to the venue
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The length of service
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- The date and rough timings
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote.
