How our food truck hire works in Shipley Bridge
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case. It works well for end-of-year celebrations and family reunions, with fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch.
Somewhere as small as Shipley Bridge, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Shipley Bridge questions
Which station should guests use for Shipley Bridge?
The closest is Gatwick Airport station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
Is it possible to have you in Worth Park Gardens?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, on a menu and timings agreed with you. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Shipley Bridge.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
How it compares
Burger and pizza vans are familiar. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected. There is no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

- Expected numbers
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- What power and water the site has
- The date and time of the event
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will make suggestions. When you’re ready, use our quote form.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
- Send allergy details in writing
- Share your running order
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
Guests order at the hatch and their food is handed out hot.
A taco-bar station can sit next to the truck.
Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Perfect for your event in Shipley Bridge

Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. People in Shipley Bridge can book us for occasions like:
- Company away days
- Engagements and anniversaries
- Big birthdays
- Back-garden parties
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Bartholomew, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.

How it works
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. By late September, it’s dark in Shipley Bridge at around 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
How to prepare
- Find out what power and water are available
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
