Food truck hire for Walthamstow Village events
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Planning the serving area
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
As a London location, Walthamstow Village is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Common questions in Walthamstow Village
Is food truck hire possible at a house in Walthamstow Village?
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.
We are having a ceremony at St. Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can we add drinks?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff and alcohol-free choices. We’ll talk through licensing first.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
