DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
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.
How our food truck hire works in West Kensington
Food truck hire means our truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it is a private hire, so we plan the menu and service times around you. For garden parties and big birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of tacos from the hatch, burrito bowls and loaded nachos for your guests.
For a private or work event in West Kensington, our truck or trailer parks up and guests order at the hatch. Let us know about the access, any barriers and the width of the way in, and send a photo if you can. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

How we price food truck hire
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Parking and the route in
- How many guests we’re serving
- Your choice of food and drinks
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

- The date and rough timings
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground

Common questions in West Kensington
We’re having a ceremony at St Cuthbert's: 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. Tell us where the reception will be.
What about parking in West Kensington?
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.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
Can we hire a bar too?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar and alcohol-free choices. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
What space does the truck need?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we’ll check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.
How does food truck hire work?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook, serve and clear away.

How the day works
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. A Christmas party in West Kensington with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- 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.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in West Kensington? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- Distance from houses and windows
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
West Kensington 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
