- The address or venue name
- What you’d like on the menu
- Diets and allergies you know about
- A picture of where we’d park
To get a price, just send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your event in Cranham, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
How our food truck hire works in Cranham
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. For leaving parties and family reunions, we will put together a menu of vegan tacos, quesadillas and burritos and more.
In a London neighbourhood like Cranham, the first question for food truck hire is parking. A drive, a courtyard or a car park can all work, with permission, and a parking suspension may be needed on some streets. Like all of Greater London, Cranham is inside the ULEZ. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

The menu, item by item
Salsas and guacamole
Guests can add salsa and guacamole to taste, from mild to hot.
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are a simple choice for children.
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’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Organising a club, school or community event in Cranham? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
Cranham questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Luke's Cranham?
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’ll check the access.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to St. Andrew's Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests.
Do you cover Cranham?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Cranham is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not normally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Evening events in Cranham stay light until about 9:20pm at midsummer. Once it is dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Find out what power and water are available
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
How to get a price

Why choose food truck hire in Cranham?
You do not need a kitchen, which opens up gardens, fields and car parks with the venue’s agreement.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
- Anniversary celebrations
- Client events and product launches
- Leaving parties
- Summer parties at home
A food truck in St. Andrew's Park would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first.
What your quote should include
- The deposit and payment dates
- Where to see their hygiene rating
- VAT, if it applies
- Allergen information for each dish
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To get it right:
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Agree service times with us
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
We arrive in the agreed window and park where we have arranged. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
Before you choose a spot
If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
In Cranham, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
