Food truck hire near Totland
Questions from Totland
We are having a ceremony at Christ Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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’ll check the access.
Could you come to a seaside event near Totland?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, on a menu and timings agreed with you. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How does private food truck hire work?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
How our food truck hire works in Totland
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. It works well for leaving dos and retirements and client events and product launches, with vegan tacos, burrito bowls and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In and around Totland, our food truck or trailer can work at home, in a field or at a hall. If the road in is narrow or the ground soft, tell us so we can plan. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Should I do it 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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Food truck hire in Totland: local tips
Totland is about 5 miles south of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. We cater events at homes, gardens and venues in Totland. We serve in 125 places in the Isle of Wight, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 18 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Christ Church, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. Being close to the B3322 makes Totland an easy run for the truck. A private event by the sea is within reach, as Totland is within about a mile of the coast. Promenades and beaches typically need the council’s agreement for a catering vehicle.

Where the truck can go in Totland
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:

What happens on the day
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests.

In December it is dark by about 4:05pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
