Food truck hire in Holloway
Food truck hire in Holloway, from our food truck or trailer
Food truck hire means our food truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. It suits milestone birthdays and summer parties at home, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
Hiring a food truck in Holloway starts with where it can park. A drive, a courtyard or a car park can all work, with permission, and a parking suspension may be needed on some streets. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Around Holloway, historic houses include Witanhurst (1.7 miles north-west) and Athlone House (2 miles north-west).

Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
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.

What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
- Somewhere for guests to sit or stand and eat
As a London location, Holloway is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
How it works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. By late September, it’s dark in Holloway at around 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Find out what power and water are available

Holloway questions
Can we hire your food truck for an event at home in Holloway?
That depends on the space. A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work, as long as the truck or trailer can reach a level spot. Tell us what’s outside, and remember the ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Where would you park in Holloway?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
How much does food truck hire cost?
We quote for every hire, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. Contact us for a quote.
How does private food truck hire work?
We bring our food truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. Only your guests are served.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Diets, allergies and planning
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Count children separately
- Let us know who is coeliac
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
