About our food truck hire in Norbury
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so we plan the menu and service times around you. Popular choices include burritos, vegan tacos and quesadillas, and it is a good fit for summer parties at home and engagements and anniversaries.
Around Norbury, a hired truck or trailer needs a yard, forecourt or drive it can reach. The truck or trailer needs level ground and space for guests to queue, plus your venue’s agreement. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Anywhere in CR7, SW16 and SE19, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Green Lane, Croft Road and Downs Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

What happens on the day
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a picture of the space if you are unsure. By late September, it is dark in Norbury at around 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. 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
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Common questions in Norbury
Is it possible to have you in Grangewood Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Which station should guests use for Norbury?
Guests can use Norbury station, about 0.6 miles west of Norbury.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
For event organisers in Norbury
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
The menu, item by item
Burritos
A burrito is a full meal in the hand and travel well from the hatch.
Burrito bowls
A bowl is a good choice for guests avoiding tortillas.
What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
As a London location, Norbury 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Norbury

- Quesadillas

What food truck hire costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- What’s on the menu
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Your menu ideas
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many adults and children
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. To ask for one, tell us about it on our contact page.
