FAQs for Cobham
Can you bring your truck or trailer to West End Common?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Andrew: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Do we need a licence for the bar?
You will need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The date and time of the event
- What you’d like on the menu
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of where we’d park
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Step by step
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. In December, the light goes in Cobham at about 3:55pm, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
How to get a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send a quick message through our quote form.

Space, access and the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
Menu ideas
- Soft drinks
- Fruit aguas frescas

Working with your venue
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
How it compares
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand. 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.
