Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Parking and the route in
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Timings and hours
- Your choice of food and drinks
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The venue or postcode
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. For a quote, tell us about it on our contact page.
About our food truck hire in Upper Lambourn
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We can add a taco-bar station next to the truck. For client events and product launches and weddings, we’ll put together a menu of vegan tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch and more.
For a rural spot like Upper Lambourn, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What you get with us
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Menus chosen with you
- Quoted for your event
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
