We cater in 263 places across Buckinghamshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Thorney to Woking (about 13 miles away).

What food truck hire costs

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Your choice of food and drinks
  • How long we are needed on site
  • The number of people
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

How the day works

Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Planning a private evening event in Thorney? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June. After that, festoon lights or lamps near the truck help guests order.

  1. Share your plans for the event.
  2. Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
  3. We check power, water and timings with the venue.
  4. The truck serves at the agreed times.
  5. When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Getting ready for the day

  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Thorney: your questions answered

Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Thorney?

Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

How far is Thorney from central London?

It’s about 17 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?

Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.

How spicy is the food?

We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

Is food truck hire good for weddings?

The truck or trailer can serve the wedding breakfast, evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.

How much does food truck hire cost?

We quote for every hire, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.

What do you need at the venue?

Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
