About our food truck hire in Ballinger Common
Food truck hire means our food truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. It is a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. At private parties in fields and grounds and garden parties, we can serve vegan tacos, burrito bowls and burritos for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Ballinger Common, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. You’ll know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Common questions in Ballinger Common
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How far is Ballinger Common from central London?
Roughly 29 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. We fit service around your running order. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. December events in Ballinger Common lose the light at about 3:55pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive

- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

How it compares
Burger and pizza vans are familiar. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected while staying easy to eat. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Why book with us
- Every guest catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included
- Allergen information for every dish
- Book food, drinks or both
- Everything served fresh from the hatch

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
