Food truck hire for your event in Upper Bucklebury
You choose the hatch menu with us: tacos, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas, with fresh salsas and guacamole. Popular choices include burritos, tacos from the hatch and burrito bowls, and it suits private outdoor parties and end-of-year celebrations.
In a small place like Upper Bucklebury, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
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.
