Food truck hire in Shenley
Step by step
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. December events in Shenley lose the light at about 3:55pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:25pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
How to prepare
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Give us your final numbers and diets
Ask for a quote
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Common questions in Shenley
Could you serve in South Loughton Valley park?
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.
We’re having a ceremony at St. Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, and we do not sell to the public. Event organisers should see street food for festivals.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
Hiring the truck or trailer usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Do you offer a bar with the truck?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Walk the access route and note narrow gaps
- Think about cover if the weather turns
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
