Planning Thai street food van hire in Wivenhoe
Wivenhoe station is under a mile from the centre of Wivenhoe. Guests can arrive by train, which keeps parking simple and lets everyone enjoy a drink.
About two thirds homes in Wivenhoe (73%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. Our food van needs a level pitch about the size of two parking bays, which many driveways and side gardens here can offer.
Wivenhoe has plenty of character, with 20% of its homes built before 1919. Historic buildings often limit what can be cooked indoors, so we cook outside under our gazebo and serve inside.
Food van access in Wivenhoe
Our horse-box food van needs a level pitch about the size of two parking bays and a clear route in. It is fully self-contained with its own gas and equipment, so power and water on site are a bonus rather than a must.
Around Wivenhoe, that could be a garden, a driveway, a farm field, a school field or an event site.
The drive from our kitchen is about 29 miles via the A12 and A120, roughly 60 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Colchester and Colchester Town stations link to London Liverpool Street and the Sunshine Coast line.

Colchester and Colchester Town stations link to London Liverpool Street and the Sunshine Coast line
Can guests pay for their own food?
Our main service is pre-paid by the host per guest, which suits weddings and private events. For fêtes and public events, send us the expected numbers and we will discuss options.
How much does food van hire in Wivenhoe cost?
Pre-paid food van service starts from £14 per guest, with a minimum spend of £1,000. Travel from Chelmsford to Wivenhoe is included in your quote.
How much space does the food van need in Wivenhoe?
We need a reasonably flat spot about the size of two parking bays that the van can reach, on hardstanding or firm grass, with room for a queue. Send us a photo or a map pin and we will confirm it works.
Do you need power or water?
We are largely self-sufficient and cook on our own certified gas. We talk through power and water with you or the venue when we plan the event.
Do venues in Wivenhoe need a kitchen?
Not at all. Whether it is Tudor and historic houses or converted barns in Wivenhoe, we arrive with cooking stations, gas and serving kit and cook on site, so the venue's own kitchen does not matter.
How far ahead should I book for an event in Wivenhoe?
Summer Saturdays and December dates in Wivenhoe book up months ahead, so get in touch as soon as you have a date. For weekday lunches and smaller parties, a couple of weeks is often enough. A 20% deposit secures the date.
