About our food truck hire in Tidworth
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 we plan the menu and service times around you. For wedding receptions and retirement parties, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch.
Hire our food truck for an event near Tidworth and the kitchen comes with it; all we need is a level spot, a way in and permission. You will know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Before you choose a spot
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
What we offer
- Burritos
- Burrito bowls

What else we do in Tidworth
Tidworth questions
We are having a ceremony at Church of the Holy Trinity: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Is Tidworth close to London?
It’s about 70 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
How many guests can the truck serve?
That depends on your timings and the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Email us any allergies
- Agree service times with us
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
Service starts when your timings say, and we cook each order as it comes.
Ask about a second service later in the evening, quoted with the main booking.

Tidworth is about 8 miles west of Andover, in Hampshire. Give us the address of your event in Tidworth, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. We serve in all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Tidworth to Winchester (about 20 miles away).

What affects the price in Tidworth
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The length of service
- Whether you need disposables
- How many guests we’re serving
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
