Cooling questions
How far is Cooling from central London?
About 27 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you come out to small places like Cooling?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
Diets are planned with you in advance, though we can’t guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
How many guests can the truck serve?
Hiring the truck or trailer usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
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. See our food truck wedding guide.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
About our food truck hire in Cooling
Fillings might include carnitas, al pastor-style pork or chicken tinga, with vegan choices like black bean and sweet potato. There are options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free diets. We serve vegan tacos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for wedding evening food and winter staff parties.
In a hamlet or village like Cooling, our food truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
Organising for someone else?
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Send allergy details in writing
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
Guests come to the hatch, order and wait a short moment for hot food.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests.

How we price food truck hire
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Timings and hours
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you need disposables
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where the event is
- A picture of where we’d park
The quickest way to a quote is to send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will put together a menu and price.
Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. December events in Cooling lose the light at about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Burger and pizza vans are familiar. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected while staying easy to eat. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
