Food truck hire in Shipton-on-Cherwell, from our food truck or trailer
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so the menu and timings are set around your event. We serve loaded nachos, burrito bowls and quesadillas, and it is a good fit for engagements and anniversaries and parties in venue grounds.
Somewhere as small as Shipton-on-Cherwell, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Your questions about food truck hire in Shipton-on-Cherwell
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of Holy Cross?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Do you come out to small places like Shipton-on-Cherwell?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
You book the truck or trailer for set hours at your event. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
Where can the truck park?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable, especially in the evening. We agree access and timings with the venue.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.

Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
- Distance from houses and windows
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Events we cater in Shipton-on-Cherwell
Nothing is needed from a venue kitchen, so gardens, fields and grounds all become options with the venue’s agreement.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:
- Launch events
- Winter staff parties
- Summer parties at home
- Milestone birthdays
When the service is at a church such as Church of Holy Cross, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.
What your quote should include
- The wet-weather plan
- What the price includes, item by item
- Who provides plates and napkins
- Allergen information for each dish
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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 will do the serving.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
