DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
Food truck hire for your event in East Sheen
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. It suits staff summer parties and private parties in fields and grounds, with tacos from the hatch, vegan tacos and burritos.
At a private or office event in East Sheen, guests order at the hatch of our truck or trailer. Let us know about the access, any barriers and the width of the way in, and send a photo if you can. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Prices and what affects them

- The number of people
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Serving staff
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Your menu ideas
- What power and water the site has
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send you a clear quote.
Organising for someone else?
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Organising a club, school or community event in East Sheen? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
How it compares
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why us?
- Menus chosen with you
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- We cover East Sheen and the whole of Greater London

Where the truck can go in East Sheen
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
In East Sheen, 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
