Food truck hire in Sissinghurst, served fresh
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We can add a taco-bar station next to the truck. For big birthdays and end-of-year parties, we can serve burritos, burrito bowls and vegan tacos for your guests.
In a small place like Sissinghurst, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Sissinghurst: your questions answered
Will you travel to a small place like Sissinghurst?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Which station is closest to Sissinghurst?
Staplehurst station, about 4.3 miles north of the centre.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
When you hire us, the booking is yours, so we do not serve passers-by. Event organisers should see street food for festivals.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Do you offer a bar with the truck?
You can add our drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will check the licensing with you.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are 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 keeps things simple.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
How the day works
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. December events in Sissinghurst lose the light at about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:15pm.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- 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
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Give us a contact for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day

Planning help
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch. 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. Contact us for a quote.

What else we do in Sissinghurst
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
How we price food truck hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- How many staff you need
- Timings and hours
- Whether you need disposables
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Where the event is
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How we drive in and where we can park
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
The menu, item by item
Salsas and guacamole
Guacamole and a choice of salsas, freshly made.
Tacos from the hatch
Warm tortillas filled to order and finished with salsa, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushroom.
What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Distance from houses and windows
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
