Food truck hire for St Mary's Bay events
St Mary's Bay questions
Could you serve our guests after a service at All Saints?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
How far is St Mary's Bay from central London?
About 57 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear 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). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will go through the licensing with you.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
How many guests can the truck serve?
That depends on your timings and the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
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.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

Planning food truck hire around St Mary's Bay
St Mary's Bay is about 6 miles south-west of Hythe, in Kent.

How it works

- Ask us whether your date is available.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.

Why choose food truck hire in St Mary's Bay?
You do not need a kitchen, so gardens, fields and grounds all become options.
Here are some of the events we cater:
- Staff summer parties
- Family celebrations
