FAQs for Tongwell
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary Magdalene: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station is closest to Tongwell?
Guests can use Milton Keynes Central station, about 3 miles south-west of Tongwell.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
Do you do food truck hire for weddings?
A food truck suits a relaxed wedding well. We’ll check access and timings with your venue.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
Diets are planned with you in advance, though we can’t guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, including Milton Keynes. Find your area.
How our food truck hire works in Tongwell
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It is a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas, and it is a good fit for leaving dos and retirements and summer parties at home.
In a hamlet or village like Tongwell, our truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- What’s on the menu
- Whether you need disposables
- Serving staff
- Food, drinks or both
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- What you’d like on the menu
- The venue or postcode
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
What’s on the menu
Tacos from the hatch
Tacos made to order at the hatch, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushroom.
Salsas and guacamole
Salsas and guacamole finish every order, from mild to hot.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Enough width and height on the route in
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. A Christmas party in Tongwell with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
- Count children separately
We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can ask before ordering.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
Why choose food truck hire in Tongwell?
Burger and pizza vans are familiar. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
