Questions to ask before you book

Food truck hire for your event in South Acton

We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so your venue does not need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. It works well for client hospitality and christenings and family parties, serving burritos, quesadillas and tacos from the hatch.

In South Acton, a yard, forecourt or car park can suit a hired food truck. The truck or trailer needs level ground and space for guests to queue. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Diets, allergies and planning

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:

  • Tell us when guests should eat
  • Check gate widths and any height limits
  • Let us know who is coeliac
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand

We arrive in the agreed window and park where we’ve arranged. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.

Our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Where the truck can go in South Acton

We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:

  • Power and water details confirmed in advance
  • A spot away from neighbours
  • Room for guests to gather at the hatch

South Acton is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
