Food truck hire in Tinsley Green, served fresh
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 burrito bowls, which works well for family celebrations and winter staff parties.
For a rural spot like Tinsley Green, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
FAQs for Tinsley Green
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Michael and All Angels Church?
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 will check the access.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Worth Park Gardens?
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 will send what they need from us.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you cover Tinsley Green?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Tinsley Green and across West Sussex. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
When do you arrive?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Can we hire a bar too?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. We will talk through licensing first.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
Allergen information is available at the hatch for every dish.
Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we’ll confirm the options in your quote.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
What happens on the day
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. At midsummer, it stays light in Tinsley Green until about 9:20pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
