A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Tell us how many children are coming
Allergen information is available at the hatch for every dish, so guests can ask before ordering.
A taco-bar station can sit next to the truck.
Food truck hire for your event in Hackbridge
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. For family reunions and end-of-year celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of vegan tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch.
Around Hackbridge, a hired truck or trailer needs a yard, forecourt or drive it can reach. The truck or trailer needs level ground and space for guests to queue, plus your venue’s agreement. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

FAQs for Hackbridge
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Cranmer Green?
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.
What about parking in Hackbridge?
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.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
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.
What food truck hire costs

What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The venue or postcode
- The date and rough timings
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
Still deciding on the menu? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Somewhere for guests to sit or stand and eat
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
As a London location, Hackbridge is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a picture of the space if you are unsure. Late-September events in Hackbridge see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.

- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Before we arrive
