Food truck hire for South Ham events
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Food truck hire for your event in South Ham
We bring the truck or trailer to private and work events in and around South Ham. On the menu are tacos from the hatch, burrito bowls and vegan tacos, which works well for summer parties at home and client hospitality.
For a place the size of South Ham, food truck hire at your own home is often simplest: no venue hire, and guests order at the hatch. Tell us about the lane and the drive. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

What else we do in South Ham
DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
A closer look at the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Guacamole and a choice of salsas, freshly made.
Burrito bowls
A bowl is a good choice for guests avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt.
Food truck hire or something else?
Several trucks mean several quotes and arrival times. One Mexican truck with a varied menu keeps things simple. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Why us?
- Allergen information for every dish
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included

How it works
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. December events in South Ham lose the light at about 4:00pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Space, access and the venue
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
- Parking arrangements if we are not on private land
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

South Ham: your questions answered
How far is South Ham from London?
It is about 47 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Saint Peter's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
What do you need at the venue?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we’ll check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.
