Food truck hire for Harlesden events

Your questions about food truck hire in Harlesden

Which station is closest to Harlesden?

Guests can use Willesden Junction station, which is right in Harlesden.

Is parking a problem for events in Harlesden?

It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do you need electricity?

Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.

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; see our street food catering page.

Do you do food truck hire for weddings?

The truck or trailer can serve the wedding breakfast, evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.

Is the truck suitable for a large group?

Hiring the truck or trailer typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.

Can you keep it mild?

We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

Food truck hire in Harlesden, served fresh

As a guide, hiring the truck or trailer suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case, so tell us how many you expect. It works well for milestone birthdays and wedding evening food, serving burrito bowls, quesadillas and vegan tacos.

Hiring a food truck in Harlesden starts with where it can park. A drive, a courtyard or a car park can all work, with permission, and some streets may need a parking suspension from the council. Like all of Greater London, Harlesden is inside the ULEZ. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Is food truck hire right for your event?

A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What affects the price in Harlesden

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.

Getting an accurate quote

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • The venue or postcode
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • A picture of where we’d park

Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

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.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Planning the serving area

We will be honest if a space won’t work. The main points are:

  • Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
  • Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
  • Level, solid ground for the vehicle

In Harlesden, 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.

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How the day works

We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. By late September, it is dark in Harlesden at around 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:55pm.

  1. Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
  2. You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
  3. Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
  4. On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
  5. Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
