What happens on the day
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. In Grove Park, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Mexican catering in Grove Park, served fresh
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. It works well for family celebrations and leaving parties, with quesadillas, burritos and loaded nachos.
In a London neighbourhood like Grove Park, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. Narrow streets, permit bays and yellow lines all affect where we can stop, so let us know about off-street space, or whether the council will need to suspend a parking bay. All of Greater London, Grove Park included, is inside the ULEZ. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

What we need at the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
As a London location, Grove Park is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
On the day, we arrive in good time to park up and get ready. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.
Grove Park: your questions answered
Could you serve in Chinbrook Meadows?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
What about parking in Grove Park?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will go through the licensing with you.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
