Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Trader information and site rules
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Vehicle access before and after the event
In Kensal Town, 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 picture and we will tell you honestly.
The process
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Late-September events in Kensal Town see sunset at about 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Kensal Town questions
Which station should guests use for Kensal Town?
Queens Park (London) station, about 0.7 miles north of the centre.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Kensal Town?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear 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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
