How we price food truck hire
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Timings and hours
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- The number of people
- Your choice of food and drinks
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
What to tell us
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Your menu ideas
- The venue or postcode
- What power and water the site has
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Food truck hire in Forest Hill, served fresh
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so there’s no need for kitchen space at the venue. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. At launch events and garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, burrito bowls and quesadillas for your guests.
In Forest Hill, a yard, forecourt or car park can suit a hired food truck. We need a level spot and room for a queue at the hatch. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Organising for someone else?
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. Our truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Flag any coeliac guests
Guests order at the hatch and their food is handed out hot.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests.
Questions from Forest Hill
Could you serve in Peckham Rye?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Is parking a problem for events in Forest Hill?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
What do you need at the venue?
A firm, level spot, a way in that fits the vehicle, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
Do you come to Forest Hill?
We do. Forest Hill is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable. We’ll check access and timings with your venue.
Do you offer a bar with the truck?
You can add our drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
- A spot away from neighbours
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
London streets around Forest Hill can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
The process
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. Late-September events in Forest Hill see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
