How our food truck hire works in Woodford

A hired food truck works for weddings, birthdays and staff days, and any gathering where guests want hot food without a sit-down meal. It suits wedding evening food and birthday parties, serving burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and vegan tacos.

Around Woodford, a hired truck or trailer needs a yard, forecourt or drive it can reach. The truck or trailer needs level ground and space for guests to queue, plus your venue’s agreement. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Occasions we cater for in Woodford

Nothing is needed from a venue kitchen, so gardens, fields and grounds all become options.

These are some of the occasions we serve:

  • Client events and product launches
  • Retirement parties
  • End-of-year celebrations
  • Parties in venue grounds

When the service is at a church such as St Barnabas' Church, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.

Before booking anyone

  • How many staff are serving, and for how long
  • Exactly what’s included in the price
  • If the price includes VAT
  • The deadline for final numbers

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Catering for every guest

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • Check early that your venue allows food trucks
  • Have shelter ready in case of rain
  • Add a dietary question to the invitation

When service ends, we pack away, leaving our spot tidy.

Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • How many staff you need
  • Travel, parking and access
  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • Whether you need disposables

The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.

Getting an accurate quote

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Expected numbers
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • Gate widths, slopes and the ground
  • What power and water the site has

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just send us your details through our quote form.

How it works

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. Late-September events in Woodford see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.

  1. First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
  2. You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
  3. Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
  4. We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
  5. After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Ask the venue about power and water

Woodford questions

Which station should guests use for Woodford?

Guests can use Highams Park station, about 1.3 miles west of Woodford.

Could you serve our guests after a service at St Barnabas' Church?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.

Do you come to Woodford?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Woodford. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Do you provide allergen information for each dish?

We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.

What about power on site?

Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
