Food truck hire in Wannock, from our food truck or trailer
As a guide, hiring the truck or trailer suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case. At retirement parties and milestone birthdays, we can serve fresh salsas and guacamole, burritos and loaded nachos.
In a rural place like Wannock, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: 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 plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Planners, venues and businesses
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. A Christmas party in Wannock with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
Getting a price
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, send us your details through our quote form.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Agree service times with us
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
If your timings move, let us know and we will adjust service.
Tell us what serveware you need and we will confirm what’s possible.
Common questions in Wannock
How far is Wannock from London?
About 50 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you cater 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.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
How much is food truck hire?
We don’t publish set prices, because each hire is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
