FAQs for Highleigh
How far is Highleigh from central London?
It is about 59 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
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.
Why choose food truck hire in Highleigh?

The process
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. Late-September events in Highleigh see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
