Food truck hire in Watt's Cross, served fresh
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. At family celebrations and wedding evening food, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, burritos and tacos from the hatch.
Near Watt's Cross, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Questions from Watt's Cross
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Watt's Cross?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Parish Church of St John?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Watt's Cross.
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Comparing your options
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

For event organisers in Watt's Cross

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

Can I do a taco night myself?
