What affects the price in Southington
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many guests we’re serving
- How long we are needed on site
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Staff for serving and the bar
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Food truck hire in Southington, from our food truck or trailer
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, so tell us how many you expect. It suits private outdoor parties and client hospitality, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch.
Somewhere as small as Southington, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
