Your questions about food truck hire in Halfway Houses
How far is Halfway Houses from London?
Roughly 38 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Which station should guests use for Halfway Houses?
Guests can use Queenborough station, about 1 mile west of Halfway Houses.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Can we hire a bar too?
Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will check the licensing with you.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Before you choose a spot
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
- Enough width and height on the route in
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
