Food truck hire in West Kingston
Common questions in West Kingston
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Andrew's Church?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
How much does food truck hire cost?
We quote for every hire, based on guest numbers, the menu, the location and service times. Contact us for a quote.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
About our food truck hire in West Kingston
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. It suits staff appreciation days and parties in venue grounds, with fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and tacos from the hatch.
For a rural spot like West Kingston, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day.

How it works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. At midsummer, it stays light in West Kingston until about 9:20pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.

Toasted tortillas with melted cheese and a filling.
Tacos from the hatch
Tacos are quick to serve and easy to eat standing up.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
