Food truck hire for your event in Stanford Common
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. At big birthdays and end-of-year celebrations, we can serve tacos from the hatch, quesadillas and burritos for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Stanford Common, our truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
