How our food truck hire works in West Hampstead
Food truck hire means our food truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. It is a private booking, not public trading, so we plan the menu and service times around you. It works well for staff appreciation days and family reunions, with tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and quesadillas.
In a London neighbourhood like West Hampstead, the first question for food truck hire is parking. A drive, a courtyard or a car park can all work, with permission, and a parking suspension may be needed on some streets. Like all of Greater London, West Hampstead is inside the ULEZ. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

The process
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. At midsummer, it stays light in West Hampstead until about 9:20pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Before we arrive
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day
How to get a price
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

Perfect for your event in West Hampstead
The truck becomes the place guests gather, and the hatch draws people over.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:
- Staff summer parties
- Milestone birthdays

How it compares
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
Why us?
- Service planned around your numbers
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- Quoted for your event
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

West Hampstead questions
Is it possible to have you in Kilburn Grange Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Presbyterian Church Of St Andrew?
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 will check the access.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
When you hire us, the booking is yours, and we do not sell to the public. Event organisers should see street food for festivals.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can we hire a bar too?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff and alcohol-free choices. We’ll talk through licensing first.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
London streets around West Hampstead 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’ll advise before you book.
