About our food truck hire in Sole Street
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It is simple, quick and sociable. At private parties in fields and grounds and weddings, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos and more.
In a small place like Sole Street, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Sole Street: your questions answered
How far is Sole Street from central London?
It’s about 22 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can we hire your food truck for a private party in Sole Street?
Yes, as long as we are available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
You book the truck or trailer for set hours at your event. We cook, serve and clear away.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you come to Sole Street?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Sole Street. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Can we add drinks?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff and alcohol-free choices. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.
Step by step
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event.

For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
