Bockhanger: your questions answered
How far is Bockhanger from central London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
When do you arrive?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options.
Diets, allergies and planning
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Email us any allergies
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
The hatch opens at the time you choose.
Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we will confirm the options in your quote.

These are the factors that matter most:
- Travel, parking and access
