The process
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. A Christmas party in West Cliffe with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:15pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Give us a contact for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day

Food truck hire in West Cliffe, served fresh
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. We can add a taco-bar station next to the truck. It suits wedding evening food and engagements and anniversaries, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and burrito bowls.
Somewhere as small as West Cliffe, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Occasions we cater for in West Cliffe

Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

Common questions in West Cliffe
How far is West Cliffe from central London?
It is about 67 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter?
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.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Do you do food truck hire for weddings?
Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable, especially in the evening. We agree access and timings with the venue.
What does food truck hire cost?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
