What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
London streets around St Giles can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
On the menu in St Giles
- Tacos
- Burrito bowls
- Mexican drinks bar
- Quesadillas
- Burritos
- Loaded nachos
What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. At midsummer, it stays light in St Giles until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Questions from St Giles
Can you bring your truck or trailer to St Anne's Churchyard?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Which station is closest to St Giles?
Tottenham Court Road station, in St Giles itself.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
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.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Should I do it myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
