Food truck hire in Tisman's Common, from our food truck or trailer
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so there’s no need for kitchen space at the venue. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. Popular choices include burrito bowls, burritos and loaded nachos, and it suits birthday parties and client hospitality.
In a rural place like Tisman's Common, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Why book with us
- Menus for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Quoted for your event
- A plan agreed before the day

Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. A hired food truck at a summer event in Tisman's Common can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, 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.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
