What else we do in Woodside
Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Agree service times with us
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
When service ends, we pack away, leaving our spot tidy.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.
Woodside questions
Can we hire your food truck for an event at home in Woodside?
That depends on the space. A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work, as long as the truck or trailer can reach a level spot. Tell us what’s outside, and remember the ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Where would you park in Woodside?
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.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you cover Woodside?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Woodside and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.
Can we add drinks?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. We’ll talk through licensing first.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan for diets before the day, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
How much does food truck hire cost?
We don’t publish set prices, because each hire is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
The process
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. At midsummer, it stays light in Woodside until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Getting ready for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Ask the venue about power and water
Ask for a quote
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, use our quote form.
Planning help
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
What’s on the menu
Loaded nachos
Nachos are good for sharing between friends; dairy-free versions can be planned.
Tacos from the hatch
Warm tortillas filled to order and finished with salsa, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushroom.
What food truck hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Distance and access to the venue
- The length of service
- Whether you need disposables
- Staff for serving and the bar
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
Details that help
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- What power and water the site has
- Where the event is
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just send a quick message through our quote form.
Events we cater in Woodside
Food comes from the hatch hot, one order at a time, rather than waiting under foil.
We cater all kinds of occasions in Woodside and nearby. Some of the most common are:
- Weddings
- Winter staff parties
- Family celebrations
- Milestone birthdays
A food truck in Ashburton Park would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first.
Questions to ask before booking
- A clear list of what’s included
- Where to see their hygiene rating
- What happens if it rains
- What the caterer needs from your venue
What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
In Woodside, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
