Food truck hire for Stockbury events
Food truck hire for your event in Stockbury
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It is simple, quick and sociable for guests and hosts. It works well for retirement parties and launch events, with tacos from the hatch, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
Somewhere as small as Stockbury, 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. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
About the menu
Burritos
A burrito is a full meal in the hand and travel well from the hatch.

Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Share your running order
- Send allergy details in writing
Allergen information is available at the hatch for every dish, so guests can ask before ordering.
Ask us about evening food later on.
What food truck hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many staff you need
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Parking and the route in
- The number of people
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- A spot away from neighbours
- Somewhere for guests to sit or stand and eat
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch

Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
How it works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. A hired food truck at a summer event in Stockbury can serve in daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:00pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- 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.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Questions from Stockbury
What’s the nearest station to Stockbury for guests?
The closest is Newington station, roughly 2.2 miles away.
We are having a ceremony at St Mary Magdalene Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can we add drinks?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we’ll check with you.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
How does food truck hire work?
We bring our food truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. It’s a private booking for your guests only.
Food truck hire or something else?
Burger and pizza vans are familiar. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
