Should I do it myself?
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 will do the serving.

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck for a wedding breakfast or lunch.
What food truck hire costs
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- The number of people
- Parking and the route in
- How long we are needed on site
- What the venue already provides
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of where we’d park
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The date and rough timings
- The venue or postcode
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At a festival we trade to the public; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. At midsummer, it stays light in Wootton until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:10pm. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
