What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- A photo of the drive or garden helps us check the space
London streets around South Lambeth can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

Mexican party catering in South Lambeth, from our food truck or trailer
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there is level, firm ground and a way in that is wide enough. Not sure? Send us a photo. We serve quesadillas, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos, and it is a good fit for family get-togethers and leaving dos and retirements.
In South Lambeth, a back-garden party is the usual choice, but access can be tight. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot out front may work, with permission. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and parking needs planning too. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
