Common questions in Tilford
Will you travel to a small place like Tilford?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Which station is closest to Tilford?
Guests can use Farnham station, about 2.5 miles north-west of Tilford.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you cover Tilford?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Tilford is within our area. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Can we hire a bar too?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar and alcohol-free choices. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we’ll check with you.
How our food truck hire works in Tilford
A hired food truck works for weddings, birthdays and staff days, and any gathering where guests want hot food without a sit-down meal. It works well for christenings and family parties and weddings, serving vegan tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls.
Somewhere as small as Tilford, 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. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Food truck hire or something else?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Why us?

Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. A hired food truck at a summer event in Tilford can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
Wet weather doesn’t close the hatch, but guests will want a covered area to eat.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children.
What food truck hire costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Travel, parking and access
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
Details that help
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- What power and water the site has
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both

Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
