Planning an event in Kensal Green?
The process
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. By late September, it is dark in Kensal Green at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we will serve and where.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
How to get a price
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

FAQs for Kensal Green
Where would you park in Kensal Green?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Which station is closest to Kensal Green?
Guests can use Kensal Green station, which is right in Kensal Green.
Do you need power?
Let us know what the pitch has and we will confirm our needs. We confirm power and water with each booking.
Do you do crew catering?
Yes, timed to your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can we book you as a trader?
Send us the details, and we will confirm availability and requirements.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Share vehicle access times with traders
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
If crew or volunteer meals are booked, they’re served at the agreed times.
Nachos for groups.

Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Fundraisers and fêtes
- Outdoor screenings
- Village fêtes and summer fairs
- Food and music festivals
A fundraiser for a church like St Martin might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer.

What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
In Kensal Green, 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Comparing your options
Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot meal keeps crew happy. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
