How we price food truck hire
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- The menu you choose
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Parking and the route in
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- The address or venue name
- The date and rough timings
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
What we need at the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
In St Paul's Cray, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Common questions in St Paul's Cray
Is food truck hire possible at a house in St Paul's Cray?
A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work, depending on your street. Guests order at the hatch, so we also need room for a queue, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service usually suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: 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 photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you cover St Paul's Cray?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including St Paul's Cray and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
A food truck suits a relaxed wedding well, especially in the evening. We’ll check access and timings with your venue.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
We bring our food truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. Only your guests are served.
How it compares
Most guests have seen a burger van. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected while staying easy to eat. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down, leaving our spot tidy.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can join the truck, with licensing checked with you.
The process
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Late-September events in St Paul's Cray see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.

- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
