Questions from Upminster Bridge

Could your truck or trailer park at our home in Upminster Bridge?

That depends on the space. A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work, as long as the truck or trailer can reach a level spot. Tell us what’s outside, and remember the ULEZ covers all of Greater London.

Is it possible to have you in St. Andrew's Park?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

Is the food very hot?

It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

How much is a food truck for an event?

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.

What does hiring your food truck involve?

You book the truck or trailer for set hours at your event. We cook, serve and clear away.

Who clears up?

Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.

What do you need at the venue?

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. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.

How long are you on site?

That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.

Planning the serving area

We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
  • Parking arrangements if we are not on private land
  • Power and water, confirmed with each booking

Upminster Bridge is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

  3. We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
  4. We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
  5. After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.

Getting ready for the day
