Food truck hire for Sutton events
Food truck hire for your event in Sutton
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so we plan the menu and service times around you. Popular choices include loaded nachos, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it’s a good fit for weddings and company away days.
In a small place like Sutton, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
About the menu
Tacos from the hatch
A taco is ideal food from a truck, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole, for sharing.

What happens on the day
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. By late September, it is dark in Sutton at around 7:00pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:45pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- 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.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Should I do it myself?
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.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.

About 66 miles from central London, and we cover it.
What’s the nearest station to Sutton for guests?

Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.

We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.

That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.

Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Let us know who is coeliac
Wet weather does not close the hatch, but guests will want a covered area to eat.
Nachos for sharing at the start are a good way to begin.
