For event organisers in Whitley Wood

Food truck hire for your event in Whitley Wood
A hired food truck works for weddings, birthdays and staff days. At family celebrations and summer parties at home, we can serve tacos from the hatch, burritos and burrito bowls for your guests.
In a smaller place like Whitley Wood, hiring our food truck for a party at home is often the easiest option: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Tell us about the lane and the drive. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
How the day works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. At midsummer, it stays light in Whitley Wood until about 9:25pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Check our availability for your date.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Before we arrive
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Cooking yourself saves on catering but costs you the day. Hire the truck and the cooking is ours. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
