Is food truck hire right for your event?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At a festival we trade to the public; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.

Where the truck can go in Upper Dicker
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Working with your venue
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Upper Dicker? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Upper Dicker questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Whether you need disposables
- What’s on the menu
- How many staff you need
- Food, drinks or both
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- How we drive in and where we can park
- What you’d like on the menu
- Where the event is
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, use our quote form.
