Upton questions

What about parking in Upton?

That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.

Could your truck or trailer park at our home in Upton?

It depends on the space: a drive, a courtyard or a parking bay suspended by the council can all work. Guests order at the hatch, so we also need room for a queue, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do you do a taco bar?

Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll recommend how to serve.

Who clears up?

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.

What happens if it rains?

The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.

How does food truck hire work?

You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.

Do you sell to the public at private events?

A private hire is booked and quoted for you, and we don’t sell to the public. Organisers wanting us to trade at their event can see our festival page.

Planning for every diet

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:

  • Look into parking permissions if the truck can’t go off-road
  • Confirm allergies with us in writing
  • Think about cover if the weather turns
  • Check early that your venue allows food trucks

Guests order at the hatch and their food is handed out hot.

Ask about a second service later in the evening, quoted with the main booking.

Where the truck can go in Upton

Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:

  • The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
  • Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
  • Enough width and height on the route in

In Upton, 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 you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

How it works

We work to your timings. If things run behind, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. By late September, it’s dark in Upton at around 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.

  1. Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
  2. We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
  3. We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
  4. We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
  5. Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
