About our food truck hire in Stroud Common
Our truck or trailer is available to hire for events across Stroud Common and nearby: gardens, venue grounds, car parks and business parks. It works well for end-of-year celebrations and family celebrations, with quesadillas, vegan tacos and tacos from the hatch.
Near Stroud Common, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. You will know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Where the truck can go in Stroud Common
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

For planners, venues and organisers
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
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.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
FAQs for Stroud Common
How far is Stroud Common from central London?
It is about 29 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Christ Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can we hire a bar too?
You can add our drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What access 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 picture of the space and the way in.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
