Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
London streets around Swiss Cottage 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Swiss Cottage: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at Church of All Souls: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
What’s the nearest station to Swiss Cottage for guests?
South Hampstead station, in Swiss Cottage itself.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
Diets are planned with you in advance, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
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.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Swiss Cottage.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. At festivals and markets we trade to the public.

What else we do in Swiss Cottage
The menu, item by item
Burritos
A burrito is a full meal in the hand and travel well from the hatch.
Loaded nachos
Nachos are good for sharing between friends; dairy-free versions can be planned.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
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.
