How far is Spencers Wood from central London?

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Swallowfield Meadow?

What guest numbers do you cater for?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer 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.
Do you do food truck hire for weddings?
We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.
Do you cover Spencers Wood?
We do. Spencers Wood is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
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; see our street food catering page.

Organising for someone else?
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
The process
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. By late September, it’s dark in Spencers Wood at around 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:55pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Share the running order, including any speeches
How to get a price

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
How it compares
Booking several street food trucks means juggling several suppliers. One truck with tacos, burritos and nachos is one booking to manage. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Why book with us
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Allergen information for every dish
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
