Questions from Goddington
Which station should guests use for Goddington?
Guests can use Chelsfield station, about 0.7 miles south of Goddington.
Is parking a problem for events in Goddington?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. 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.

- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- The date and time of the event

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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 will do the serving.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To make it work smoothly:
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
If your timings move, let us know and we’ll adjust service.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
Before you choose a spot
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
Goddington is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Late-September events in Goddington see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
