Food truck hire in Tokers Green, from our truck or trailer
Food truck hire suits weddings, milestone birthdays and staff events. For leaving dos and retirements and birthday parties, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, burritos and quesadillas and more.
For a rural spot like Tokers Green, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Why choose food truck hire in Tokers Green?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Why us?
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Set-up planned with you and your venue

What else we do in Tokers Green
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Check gate widths and any height limits

FAQs for Tokers Green

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
