Headington Hill questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Headington Hill Park?
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 Headington Hill close to London?
It is about 52 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you cater in Headington Hill?
Yes, we do. Headington Hill is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
What food truck hire costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Guest numbers
- What’s on the menu
- Parking and the route in
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Details that help
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- A picture of where we’d park
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Expected numbers
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. To start, send a quick message through our quote form.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. December events in Headington Hill lose the light at about 3:55pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
How to get a price
Send us the date, your venue or OX3 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just send a quick message through our quote form.

- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
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 will do the serving.

Tacos from the hatch
Tacos are quick to serve and easy to eat standing up, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
