About our food truck hire in Cockfosters
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. For private parties in fields and grounds and wedding receptions, we’ll put together a menu of tacos from the hatch, loaded nachos and burritos for your guests.
In Cockfosters, a yard, forecourt or car park can suit a hired food truck. The truck or trailer needs level ground and space for guests to queue. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Questions from Cockfosters
We’re having a ceremony at Christ Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not 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 will check the access.
Is food truck hire possible at a house in Cockfosters?
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.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
- Distance from houses and windows
Cockfosters is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
Why book with us
- A menu built around your guests
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
Read our prices page and the cost guide.
For event organisers in Cockfosters
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Cockfosters? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Diets, allergies and planning
We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To get it right:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Share your running order
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down and drive off quietly.
Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we will confirm the options in your quote.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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 will do the serving.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Popular choices
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese and a filling.
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
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The number of people
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Parking and the route in
There is no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
What we need to know
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What power and water the site has
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send a quick message through our quote form.
