How our food truck hire works in Slindon Common
Service is planned around your timings: a lunchtime window, an evening service or a longer slot through a party. Let us know your running order and we’ll plan around it.

How we price food truck hire
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- The menu you choose
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- The venue or postcode
- Diets and allergies you know about
- How we drive in and where we can park
Send us the date, your venue or BN18 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just send us your details through our quote form.

FAQs for Slindon Common
How far is Slindon Common from London?
It is about 50 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
We’re having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
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’ll check the access.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Can we add drinks?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. We’ll talk through licensing first.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Popular choices
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese and a filling.
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings in a bowl.
Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Share your running order
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
- Count children separately
- Flag any coeliac guests
We can serve through rain, though a marquee or gazebo helps guests stay dry.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
