Food truck hire for Chelsea events
Food truck hire in Chelsea, served fresh
You choose the hatch menu with us: tacos and burritos, with bowls, nachos or quesadillas if you like, with fresh salsas and guacamole. It works well for company away days and parties in venue grounds, serving loaded nachos, burritos and burrito bowls.
For a private or work event in Chelsea, our food truck or trailer parks up and guests order at the hatch. Tell us about the route in, height barriers and narrow entrances, and send a photo if you can. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck for a wedding breakfast or lunch.
Comparing your options
If you want guests to remember the food, a private food truck is a strong option. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

For event organisers in Chelsea
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
FAQs for Chelsea
Could your truck or trailer park at our home in Chelsea?
It depends on the space: a drive, a courtyard or a parking bay suspended by the council can all work. We also need room for guests to queue at the hatch, and the ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Where would you park in Chelsea?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: 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 picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What affects the price in Chelsea
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you need disposables
- Timings and hours
- Food, drinks or both
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- What you’d like on the menu
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
Where the truck can go in Chelsea
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
Chelsea is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
