Food truck hire in Twelve Oaks
How our food truck hire works in Twelve Oaks
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. It suits end-of-year celebrations and big birthdays, serving tacos from the hatch, quesadillas and burritos.
For a rural spot like Twelve Oaks, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Hiring a food truck in Twelve Oaks

Twelve Oaks is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. We cater right across the region, from Twelve Oaks to Royal Tunbridge Wells (14 miles away).
After a service at a church such as The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket, a hired food truck at a garden, field or venue nearby can feed everyone. Roughly 43 miles separate Twelve Oaks from central London, which can suit a team day out of the city with a hired food truck. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 3 miles of Twelve Oaks, with country venues and gardens where a hired food truck could serve. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules on vehicles, so check with yours.

Working with your venue
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
FAQs for Twelve Oaks
Do you come out to small places like Twelve Oaks?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Twelve Oaks?
Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
When you hire us, the booking is yours, so we don’t serve passers-by. Event organisers should see street food for festivals.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t usually stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Popular choices
Burritos
A large flour tortilla rolled round rice, beans, a filling and toppings.
Burrito bowls
Everything from a burrito, served in a bowl.
Food truck hire or something else?
For food that becomes part of the event, a private food truck is a strong option. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
