How our food truck hire works in Seal
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. At staff appreciation days and retirement parties, we can serve vegan tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch for your guests.
Near Seal, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Comparing your options
Most guests have seen a burger van. Tacos and burritos from a truck feel different. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- Book food, drinks or both
- A menu agreed with you
- Served fresh from our food truck or trailer
- We cover Seal and the whole of Kent

Planning food truck hire around Seal
Seal is about 2 miles north-east of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Tell us where your event in Seal will be, and we will plan the journey and set-up. Seal is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring food truck hire. We cater right across the region, from Seal to Royal Tunbridge Wells (11 miles away).
Seal is about 20 miles from central London. Guests leaving a church like Church of St Peter and St Paul could walk or drive to a nearby garden or hall where the truck is ready. Seal is within about 4 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, with country venues and gardens where a hired food truck could serve. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules on vehicles, so check with yours.
This part of Kent takes in TN15, so your event can be anywhere in it. Streets in the area include High Street, Church Road and Jubilee Rise, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. If your venue is just outside Seal, we also cover Greatness (1 mile west), Godden Green (1 mile south), Styants Bottom (2 miles east), Stone Street (2 miles south-east) and Bitchet Green (2 miles south-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Maidstone (13 miles east), Dartford (11 miles north), Royal Tunbridge Wells (11 miles south), Gravesend (12 miles north-east), Tonbridge (7 miles south) and Northfleet (11 miles north-east).
A little further out are Sevenoaks Hospital (1.1 miles west) and Sevenoaks Museum (1.7 miles south-west). The countryside around Seal includes Dryhill Nature Reserve.
- Nearby schools include Wildernesse School (under half a mile south) and Knole Academy (1.5 miles west)
- Pubs nearby include The Five Bells Public House (less than half a mile south-east)
How the day works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. At midsummer, it stays light in Seal until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and 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.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Before we arrive
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Give us your final numbers and diets

Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Walk the access route and note narrow gaps
- Flag any coeliac guests
When service ends, we pack away and drive off quietly.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can join the truck, with licensing checked with you.
The menu, item by item
Burrito bowls
Bowls suit anyone skipping tortillas.
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are a simple choice for children.

Seal: your questions answered
Do you cater in the Kent Downs 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.
Do you come out to small places like Seal?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Where can the truck park?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we’ll check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Do you cover Seal?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Seal is within our area and the rest of Kent. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan for diets before the day, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
When do you arrive?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

- Parking arrangements if we are not on private land
- A spot away from neighbours
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
