Food truck hire for Sandhurst events
How our food truck hire works in Sandhurst
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it is a private hire, so we plan the menu and service times around you. Popular choices include vegan tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch, and it suits summer parties at home and end-of-year celebrations.
Near Sandhurst, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. You will know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Popular choices
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings in a bowl.
Burritos
Rice, beans, a filling and salsa wrapped in a big tortilla.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Food truck hire in Sandhurst: local tips
Sandhurst is about 11 miles north of Hastings, in Kent. Wherever your event is in the TN18 area, we’ll come to your venue or site. Sandhurst is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. We cater right across the region, from Sandhurst to Royal Tunbridge Wells (15 miles away).
Nearby historic houses include Great Dixter (2.4 miles south-east). If you’re hiring a historic venue, check early whether it allows a catering vehicle on site. After a service at a church such as Mission Church, a hired food truck at a garden, field or venue nearby can feed everyone. With the High Weald National Landscape 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.
We serve at events all over the TN18 postcode area and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Bodiam Road, Poundfield Road and Queen Street, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

The process
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. At midsummer, it stays light in Sandhurst until about 9:15pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
