Food truck hire in Yaverland, served fresh
We serve when you want us to: a set lunch hour, an evening slot or a few hours through a party. Tell us when guests should eat. For weddings and leaving dos and retirements, we’ll put together a menu of quesadillas, burritos and burrito bowls.
In a hamlet or village like Yaverland, our truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain.

Hiring our taco truck near Yaverland
Yaverland is about 4 miles south of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. Across the PO36 area, we will come to your venue or site. Yaverland is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight where we can bring food truck hire. We cater right across the region, from Yaverland to Portsmouth (10 miles away).
Historic houses near Yaverland include Yaverland Manor (0.5 miles north) and Morton Manor (0.9 miles north-west). If you’re hiring a historic venue, check early whether it allows a catering vehicle on site. Colleagues or friends without a car may like to know that the nearest station is Brading station, about 1 mile north. With the coast within about a mile of Yaverland, wind is worth planning for. A sheltered, firm spot for the truck or trailer and the queue works best.
We cover events in every part of the PO36 postcode area and the streets around it. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Meadow Way, Yaverland Close and Yaverland Road or the roads around them. Close by, we cover events in Yarbridge (1 mile north-west), Morton (1 mile north-west), Brading (1 mile north), Sandown (1 mile south-west) and Adgestone (1 mile north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Newport (8 miles west), Ryde (4 miles north), Cowes (10 miles north-west), Shanklin (3 miles south-west), Ventnor (6 miles south-west) and East Cowes (9 miles north-west). If your event is somewhere remote, tell us early so we can plan the journey, access and power.

Questions from Yaverland
Can you cater a reception after a service at St John the Baptist Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Could you come to a seaside event near Yaverland?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots typically need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
How much is food truck hire?
Each hire is quoted individually, based on guest numbers, the menu, the location and service times. Contact us for a quote.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
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’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. By late September, it is dark in Yaverland at around 7:10pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:55pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
How to prepare
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to drop us a line using the enquiry form. Give us the details of your event, and we will put together a menu and price.

A closer look at the menu
Loaded nachos
A tray of nachos works as a starter or a late snack; dairy-free versions can be planned.
Burrito bowls
Bowls suit anyone skipping tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- What the venue already provides
- Food, drinks or both
- How many guests we are serving
- How many staff you need
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where the event is
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send you a clear quote.
Why choose food truck hire in Yaverland?
Several trucks mean several quotes and arrival times. One Mexican truck with a varied menu keeps things simple. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
Why us?
- Allergen-aware menus
- Service planned around your numbers
- A menu agreed with you
- Book food, drinks or both

Planning the serving area
We will be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
Yaverland is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Email us any allergies
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Share your running order
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down and drive off quietly.
A taco-bar station can sit next to the truck.
Planners, venues and businesses
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Events we cater in Yaverland
The truck is yours for the booking, so the queue is your guests only and the menu suits them.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Staff summer parties
- End-of-year parties
- Private outdoor parties
- Garden parties
When the service is at a church such as St John the Baptist Church, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.
