Food truck hire near Finchley
Step by step
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. At midsummer, it stays light in Finchley until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive

How our food truck hire works in Finchley
Our truck or trailer is available to hire for events across Finchley and nearby: gardens, venue grounds, car parks and business parks. It works well for leaving dos and retirements and private outdoor parties, serving burrito bowls, loaded nachos and burritos.
In Finchley, 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, plus your venue’s agreement. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Food truck hire or something else?
Booking several street food trucks means juggling several suppliers. One truck with tacos, burritos and nachos is one booking to manage. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What you get with us
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- A menu built around your guests
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests

Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
The hatch opens at the time you choose.
Nachos for sharing at the start are a good way to begin.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.

Finchley questions
Can we hire your food truck for an event at home in Finchley?
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.
Where would you park in Finchley?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. We offer dairy-free options.
Where can the truck park?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we will check it works. There’s more in our space and power guide.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
