How the day works
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. A hired food truck at a summer event in Anerley can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
How to prepare
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

FAQs for Anerley
Could you serve in Crystal Palace Dinosaurs?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Is food truck hire possible at a house in Anerley?
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.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
A food truck suits a relaxed wedding well, especially in the evening. We agree access and timings with the venue.

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.

Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
Hiring the truck or trailer normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
