Food truck hire for Redbridge events

What food truck hire costs

We quote for your event, and the price is based on:

  • What’s on the menu
  • Parking and the route in
  • What the venue already provides
  • Food, drinks or both

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Details that help

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • How we drive in and where we can park

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just send a quick message through our quote form.

Food truck hire for your event in Redbridge

When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it is a private hire, so the menu and timings are set around your event. We serve loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and vegan tacos, and it’s a good fit for summer parties at home and private outdoor parties.

In Redbridge, a yard, forecourt or car park can suit a hired food truck. We need a level spot and room for a queue at the hatch, plus your venue’s agreement. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Should I do it myself?

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

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

Redbridge: your questions answered

Could your truck or trailer park at our home in Redbridge?

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.

Is it possible to have you in Valentines Park?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.

What access do you need?

Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.

What space does the truck need?

Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we’ll check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.

Can you cater for special diets?

We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.

What’s on the menu?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

Choosing a Mexican caterer

The process

When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. December events in Redbridge lose the light at about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
  2. We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
  3. We check power, water and timings with the venue.
  4. Service runs at the times you choose.
  5. When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Tell us when you want service to start
