Food truck hire for Stoke events
Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
How our food truck hire works in Stoke
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so there’s no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. On the menu are vegan tacos, loaded nachos and quesadillas, which works well for winter staff parties and anniversary celebrations.
In a small place like Stoke, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

Your questions about food truck hire in Stoke
Do you cater at coastal events near Stoke?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
How far is Stoke from central London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, so we do not serve passers-by. Organisers wanting us to trade at their event can see our festival page.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.

Food truck hire in Stoke: local tips
Stoke is about 3 miles south of Havant, in Hampshire. We cater events at gardens, halls and venues around Stoke and the surrounding area. We serve in all 683 towns and villages across Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
If guests are travelling by rail, Warblington station is about 2.4 miles away. Guests leaving a church like Church of St Peter could walk or drive to a nearby garden or hall where the truck is ready.
