Food truck hire in Walter's Green, served fresh
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It keeps things easy and relaxed. At family reunions and winter staff parties, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, vegan tacos and burrito bowls.
Somewhere as small as Walter's Green, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Comparing your options
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. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

DIY taco night or 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.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
- Tell us when guests should eat
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down, leaving our spot tidy.
Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook.
Walter's Green questions
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Walter's Green?
Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
How does food truck hire work?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. It is a private booking for your guests only.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. At festivals and markets we trade to the public.
Do you cater in Walter's Green?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Walter's Green and the rest of Kent. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
How many guests can the truck serve?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
What food truck hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Timings and hours
- What’s on the menu
- Travel, parking and access
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What we need to know
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- The venue or postcode
- Diets and allergies you know about
- How we drive in and where we can park
Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit.
