Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.

Common questions in Forest Row
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of the Holy Trinity?
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 will check the access.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will include them in the plan.
What’s on the menu?
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. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan for diets before the day, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Hog roasts are popular with meat eaters, but tacos and bowls make vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to feed. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Working with your venue
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.

How we price food truck hire
These are the factors that matter most:
- Whether you need disposables
- The length of service
- Travel, parking and access
- Staff for serving and the bar
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- What power and water the site has
- Your date and when you want service to start
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just fill in our quote form.
How it works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. By late September, it is dark in Forest Row at around 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
