Diets, allergies and planning
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Count children separately
- Let us know who is coeliac
We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can ask before ordering.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children.
How our food truck hire works in Homerton
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so your venue does not need a kitchen. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. For private parties in fields and grounds and milestone birthdays, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, vegan tacos and tacos from the hatch.
Hiring a food truck in Homerton 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, Homerton is inside the ULEZ. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a picture of the space if you are unsure. A hired food truck at a summer event in Homerton can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
