A person was treated for smoke inhalation after a food caravan caught fire at the Cuba Street Night Market in Wellington.

A Fire Service spokesman said two appliances attended the blaze and extinguished it on Saturday evening.

One person was taken by ambulance to hospital with smoke inhalation.

Wellington firefighters work to bring the food truck fire under control.

When asked what kind of food the stall served, the spokesman said he was unsure.

"It'll be burnt now," he said.
