What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
As a London location, Ruislip Gardens is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.

Food truck hire or something else?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At a festival we trade to the public; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Why book with us
- A menu built around your guests
- Events in Ruislip Gardens and across Greater London
- A clear quote
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
What happens on the day
Here’s how the day normally runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. At midsummer, it stays light in Ruislip Gardens until about 9:25pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Tell us when you want service to start
Ask for a quote

Your questions about food truck hire in Ruislip Gardens
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Paul?
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 will check the access.
Could you serve in Church Field Gardens?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, on a menu and timings agreed with you. Festival and market trading is open to the public; see our street food catering page.
How many guests can the truck serve?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
