Food truck hire for Upton Park events

The process

From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. December events in Upton Park lose the light at about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
  2. You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
  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. When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.

Before we arrive

  • Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

How to get a price

To get a price, just send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.

Where the truck can go in Upton Park

We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
  • Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
  • A clear area for a queue at the hatch

As a London location, Upton Park is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: 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 before you book.

Comparing your options

For food that becomes part of the event, a private food truck is a strong option. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Why us?

  • Menus chosen with you
  • Fast service, even with a queue
  • A truck or trailer that comes to you
  • Allergen information for everything we serve

Take a look at our pricing or our guide to catering costs.

Planning for every diet

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:

  • Email us any allergies
  • Check early that your venue allows food trucks
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
  • Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in

We can serve through rain, but guests will want a covered area to eat.

Simple quesadillas suit younger guests, if you’d like a kids’ choice.

Working with your venue

If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

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.

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

Common questions in Upton Park

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

It depends on the space: a drive, a courtyard or a parking bay suspended by the council can all work. We also need room for guests to queue at the hatch, and the ULEZ covers all of Greater London.

Can you cater a reception after a service at St Martin's Church?

Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.

Do you cook on site?

We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

Do you cater for dietary needs?

We plan for diets before the day, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.

Can you run a bar?

Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll check the licensing with you.

What does hiring your food truck involve?

Our truck or trailer comes to your venue and serves your guests from the hatch. Only your guests are served.

Where do you cater?

We cater across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.

What food and drinks do you offer?

We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
