Where the truck can go in Barking
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- Space for guests to queue
Barking 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’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

FAQs for Barking
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Patrick's Church?
Yes. The church itself is not 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.
What about parking in Barking?
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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you cover Barking?
Yes, we do. Barking is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a quote.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you cater at halls and clubs?
Typically, if there’s outdoor space to park and the venue’s permission. Check the venue allows a catering vehicle.

Other catering in Barking
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. In Barking, it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but dark by about 3:50pm in December, so the time of year shapes an evening party.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
- We confirm access, parking, power and water.
- On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
- After serving, we tidy up and leave you to celebrate.
Getting ready for the day

- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
