How it compares
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Allergen information for everything we serve

How our food truck hire works in West Hendred
You could pick fillings such as chicken tinga, carnitas or beef birria, alongside a vegan option such as spiced mushroom. There are options for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. We serve tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos, which works well for weddings and staff appreciation days.
For a rural spot like West Hendred, food truck hire needs a little planning: 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 prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Before you choose a spot
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
The process
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. By late September, it’s dark in West Hendred at around 7:10pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 9:00pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Give us your final numbers and diets
