Food truck hire for your event in Temple Ewell
Food truck hire means our food truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so the menu and timings are set around your event. We serve loaded nachos, burritos and quesadillas, and it suits family celebrations and parties in venue grounds.
Somewhere as small as Temple Ewell, 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. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

Temple Ewell questions
Do you cater at coastal events near Temple Ewell?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Could you serve in Old Park Hill?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. At festivals and markets we trade to the public; see our street food catering page.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- Distance from houses and windows
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
