Food truck hire in Tongham, from our food truck or trailer
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. For retirement parties and weddings, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole and more.
Around Tongham, a hired food truck can serve in a garden, a field or a hall car park. If the road in is narrow or the ground soft, tell us so we can plan. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Walk the access route and note narrow gaps
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
When service ends, we pack away and drive off quietly.
Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we will confirm what’s possible.
Your questions about food truck hire in Tongham
Is it possible to have you in Aldershot Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Paul?
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.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
How does private food truck hire work?
You book the truck or trailer for set hours at your event. We cook, serve and clear away.
Do you offer a bar with the truck?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Where the truck can go in Tongham
Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Room for guests to gather at the hatch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered.

- Check our availability for your date.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Who books food truck hire in Tongham?
