Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- Enough width and height on the route in
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
In Grove Park, 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 will advise.

About our food truck hire in Grove Park
The hatch menu is agreed with you: tacos and burritos, with bowls, nachos or quesadillas if you like, with fresh salsas and guacamole. On the menu are burrito bowls, burritos and loaded nachos, and it suits client hospitality and wedding evening food.
In Grove Park, 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. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

How the day works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. By late September, it’s dark in Grove Park at around 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- We agree a hatch menu and send 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
- Give us a contact for the day

Hiring a food truck in Grove Park
Grove Park is about 2 miles south-west of Eltham, in Greater London. Across the BR1 area, we’ll come to your venue or site. We cover all 764 towns and villages in Greater London. Our nearest city page is London, about 7 miles away.
Nearby historic houses include Eltham Palace (1.6 miles north-east) and Bromley Palace (1.9 miles south). Historic houses and estates typically have firm rules on vehicles, so ask where a hired food truck could park before booking.

Here we cover the BR1, SE12 and SE9 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Local streets include Shaw Road, Camlan Road and Baring Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Grove Park is on the A2212, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer.

Why choose food truck hire in Grove Park?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

About the menu
Tacos from the hatch
Warm tortillas filled to order and finished with salsa, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushroom.
Salsas and guacamole
Guests can add salsa and guacamole to taste, from mild to hot.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The menu you choose
- How many guests we’re serving
- How long we’re needed on site
- Travel, parking and access
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- What power and water the site has
- The date and rough timings
- Your menu ideas
- Roughly how many adults and children
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Tell us about coeliac guests
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
- Send allergy details in writing
Guests order at the hatch and their food is handed out hot.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck.
Occasions we cater for in Grove Park
A food truck gives a private event a focal point, and the hatch draws people over.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
- Birthday parties
- Private parties in fields and grounds
- Leaving parties
- Engagements and anniversaries
Parks such as Chinbrook Meadows usually need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often simpler.

Your questions about food truck hire in Grove Park
Is parking a problem for events in Grove Park?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Is it possible to have you in Chinbrook Meadows?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
How much does food truck hire cost?
We don’t publish set prices, because each hire is different. Tell us your plans and we will quote for your event. Our food truck hire guide explains what affects the cost.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
How does private food truck hire work?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
Where can the truck park?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we will check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
