Who this template is for

Food Truck Event Booking Form is built for restaurants, hotels and venues who need to take bookings with party size, timing and special requests.

  • Restaurants, hotels and venues working in restaurants & hospitality.
  • Teams who need to take bookings with party size, timing and special requests without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing handwritten booking notes and lost dietary requirements with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are guests and diners — the form asks them 22 questions across 4 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of handwritten booking notes and lost dietary requirements and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 12 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “Who is paying?” is Guests pay at the window, the form dynamically exposes “Is there a minimum spend guarantee?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Is mains power available on site?” is No, the form dynamically exposes “Is a generator permitted at this location?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Event type” is Wedding, the form dynamically exposes “Is a late-night service required?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

How far ahead should events be booked?

Corporate lunches often book two to three weeks out; weddings and festivals book six to twelve months ahead. Keep the date field required so you can see season pressure in your inbox.

Should I ask for a deposit?

Yes. A non-refundable deposit of 20 to 50 per cent is standard for private events because a cancelled Saturday cannot be resold at short notice.

Can I use this for festival applications?

It works as a first-contact form, but festivals usually run their own vendor application with insurance and permit uploads attached.

Why ask about the parking surface?

A loaded truck on soft grass after rain is a recovery vehicle waiting to happen, and many trucks cannot level their fryers on a slope.
