Common questions in Ifield

Could you serve in Target Hill Park?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

Could you serve our guests after a service at St Margaret's Church?

Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.

Do you offer a bar with the truck?

Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing with you.

Can you do dairy-free food?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.

Is food truck hire good for weddings?

We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.

Do you provide allergen information for each dish?

Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

How spicy is the food?

We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

Organising for someone else?

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

How it works

We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. Planning a private evening event in Ifield? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June. After that, festoon lights or lamps near the truck help guests order.

  1. Check our availability for your date.
  2. We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
  3. The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

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 enjoy the party, let us serve.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Timings and hours
  • The number of people
  • Whether you need disposables
  • Staff for serving and the bar
