Food truck hire in Acton, served fresh
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. It suits private outdoor parties and engagement parties, with loaded nachos, burrito bowls and burritos.
In Acton, a yard, forecourt or car park can suit a hired food truck. We need a level spot and room for a queue at the hatch, plus your venue’s agreement. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

A closer look at the menu
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings in a bowl.
Tacos from the hatch
Tacos are quick to serve and easy to eat standing up, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The length of service
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- How many guests we’re serving
- Staff for serving and the bar
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Where the event is
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Expected numbers
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, fill in our quote form.
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
The process
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. At midsummer, it stays light in Acton until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Acton: your questions answered
Can we hire your food truck for an event at home in Acton?
That depends on the space. A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work, as long as the truck or trailer can reach a level spot. Tell us what’s outside, and remember the ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
What about parking in Acton?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
Diets are planned with you in advance, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
Perfect for your event in Acton
The truck is yours for the booking, so there are no public queues and the menu is set for your guests.

Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
In Acton, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
Planning food truck hire around Acton
Acton is about 3 miles west of Kensington, in Greater London. We serve at events in homes, gardens and venues in Acton and the surrounding area. Acton is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Acton to London (7 miles away).
If you’re celebrating after a ceremony at a church like Dominion Cinema, our truck or trailer can be waiting at the reception spot. A food truck in Ealing Common would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first.
Food truck hire in W3, W4, NW10 and W12 is planned around your venue and access and timings. Streets in the area include High Street, Church Road and Woodhurst Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. You’ll find Acton on the B490 and A4000, so it’s easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. We also serve at events in Acton Vale (1 mile east), Acton Green (1 mile south), Bedford Park (1 mile south), Hanger Hill (1 mile north-west) and South Acton (1 mile south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (7 miles east), City of Westminster (5 miles east), Marylebone (5 miles east), Kensington (3 miles east), St Pancras (6 miles east) and Shoreditch (8 miles east).

- Local pubs include The Windmill pub (within half a mile south)
- Other local spots include Municipal Borough of Acton (within half a mile south) and Library for Iranian Studies (less than half a mile south-west)
How it compares
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
