How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. December events in Holloway Down lose the light at about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:20pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

FAQs for Holloway Down
Could your truck or trailer park at our home in Holloway Down?
A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work, depending on your street. We also need room for guests to queue at the hatch, and the ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
We are having a ceremony at Holy Trinity & St Augustine of Hippo: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
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. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Is the food very hot?
It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
Food truck hire or something else?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What we offer in Holloway Down
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests

Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- Seating or standing room near the truck
London streets around Holloway Down can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
