Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adjust.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.

- Company summer parties
- Big birthday celebrations
- School fairs and fundraisers

Historic houses near Tufnell Park include Witanhurst (1.2 miles north-west) and Keats House (1.5 miles west). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before booking one.

- Whether travel is included
- The venue requirements

Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
Tufnell Park 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 will say what we think before booking.

- Build-your-own taco bar

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Tufnell Park questions
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Benet and All Saints: can you cater afterwards?
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 parking a problem for events in Tufnell Park?
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.
When do you arrive?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
What space do you need?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we cannot promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Tufnell Park.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
What affects the price in Tufnell Park
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Whether you need disposables
