Food truck hire for your event in Smarden Bell
We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. At staff summer parties and weddings, we can serve quesadillas, tacos from the hatch and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Somewhere as small as Smarden Bell, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
For event organisers in Smarden Bell
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Comparing your options
For food that becomes part of the event, a private food truck is a strong option. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
