Common questions in Ruislip
Where would you park in Ruislip?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Which station is closest to Ruislip?
Guests can use West Ruislip station, about 1.3 miles west of Ruislip.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, on a menu and timings agreed with you. At festivals and markets we trade to the public.
Do you cater in Ruislip?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Ruislip and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Diets, allergies and planning
Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To get it right:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Agree service times with us
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook are a good way to begin.
