Food truck hire for Strood Green events
How our food truck hire works in Strood Green
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case, so tell us how many you expect. We serve tacos from the hatch, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole, which works well for garden parties and staff summer parties.
In a rural place like Strood Green, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.
Occasions we cater for in Strood Green
The truck is yours for the booking, so there are no public queues and the menu is set for your guests.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
- End-of-year celebrations
- Wedding evening food
- Christenings and family parties

After a service at a church such as Christ Church, a hired food truck at a garden, field or venue nearby can feed everyone.

- How long the service runs
- Exactly what’s included in the price

Is food truck hire right for your event?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At a festival we trade to the public; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
Why us?
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- We cover Strood Green and the whole of Surrey
- A menu agreed with you
- Access, space and power checked in advance

Step by step

- We agree a hatch menu and send 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.

What food truck hire costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- The menu you choose
- Guest numbers
