Gants Hill questions
What’s the nearest station to Gants Hill for guests?
The closest is Ilford station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
Is parking a problem for events in Gants Hill?
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.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
It depends on the venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We will talk licensing through with you.
How much is the bar?
Every bar is quoted for individually, depending on guests, drinks and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
Where the truck can go in Gants Hill
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby
- A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
- Agreement from the venue for our bar
In Gants Hill, 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.
