Throwing a late-May party in Colden Common? The sun sets at about 8:55pm. Once dusk falls, some garden lighting by the truck makes ordering easier.

Questions from Colden Common
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
How far is Colden Common from London?
It’s about 63 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you have vegan options?
We keep vegetarian and vegan fillings separate. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the party.
Comparing your options
A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Tacos and burritos are served hot, order by order. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Why us?
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
