Hiring our taco truck near Staplers

Staplers is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight where we can bring food truck hire. You can also see our page for Portsmouth, about 11 miles away.
Hoping to hire a food truck for a gathering in Seaclose Park? A catering vehicle in a public park usually needs the landowner’s permission. Guests leaving a church like St Paul's Church could walk or drive to a nearby garden or hall where the truck is ready. A private event by the sea is within reach, as Staplers is within about 5 miles of the coast. Promenades and beaches typically need the council’s agreement for a catering vehicle.
We cater events across the PO30 postcode area and the streets around it. Local streets include Pan Lane, Ash Road and Mews Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

What else we do in Staplers
Planning the serving area

Staplers: your questions answered
Could you serve in Seaclose Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Paul's Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
Diets are planned with you in advance, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
Can we hire a bar too?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we’ll check with you.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give 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 cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. At festivals and markets we trade to the public; see our street food catering page.
What happens on the day
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Late-September events in Staplers see sunset at about 7:10pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:55pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

How we price food truck hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How long we are needed on site
- What’s on the menu
- Guest numbers
- How many staff you need
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Details that help
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- A picture of where we’d park
- Any dietary needs and allergies
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, tell us about it on our contact page.
Should I do it myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Look into parking permissions if the truck can’t go off-road
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Email us any allergies
We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can ask before ordering.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.
