Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
Our pitch is kept tidy throughout the day.
A vegan filling on every menu.
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- A level pitch on firm ground
- Trader information and site rules
In City of London, 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.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in City of London? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t usually stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Christmas markets in City of London trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.

City of London questions
Where would you park in City of London?
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.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to St Alphage Garden?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can you handle a lunchtime rush?
Tell us expected visitor numbers and we will plan for peak times, so queues keep moving.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Tell us about the event, dates and pitch, and we’ll let you know if we are available.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
