How the day works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. A hired food truck at a summer event in Staines-upon-Thames can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.

- 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.

- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Should I do it myself?

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
Guests come to the hatch, order and wait a short moment for hot food.
