South Hornchurch: parking, access and venues
South Hornchurch is about 3 miles south of Romford, in Greater London. Wherever your event is in the RM13 area, we can bring the truck or trailer to you, as long as there’s access.

Nearby historic houses include Rainham Hall (0.9 miles south) and Eastbury Manor House (3.7 miles west). If you are hiring a historic venue, check early whether it allows a catering vehicle on site. Parks such as Beam Valley Country Park typically need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often simpler.

FAQs for South Hornchurch
Could you serve in Beam Valley Country Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
We’re having a ceremony at St John's Parish Church: can you cater afterwards?
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’ll check the access.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will go through the licensing with you.
Can we add drinks?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Comparing your options
Several trucks mean several quotes and arrival times. One Mexican truck with a varied menu keeps things simple. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- A menu built around your guests

Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A hired food truck at a summer event in South Hornchurch can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
