Kentish Town questions
Can we hire your food truck for an event at home in Kentish Town?
A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work, depending on your street. Guests order at the hatch, so we also need room for a queue, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
We are having a ceremony at Church of the Holy Trinity with St Barnabas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Can we add drinks?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
How much is food truck hire?
We don’t publish set prices, because each hire is different. Tell us your plans and we’ll quote for your event. Our food truck hire guide explains what affects the cost.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
A food truck suits a relaxed wedding well. We agree access and timings with the venue.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
