Planning Thai street food van hire in Chigwell
Chigwell has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. In bigger houses we can serve indoors in the kitchen or conservatory and cook outside, keeping cooking smells out of the house.
Around 27% of homes in Chigwell are flats, so many hosts here book a local hall, a pub function room or a communal space, and we come to them. We can cook on site at the venue or set up a hot buffet, whichever suits the space.
Food van access in Chigwell
Our horse-box food van needs a level pitch about the size of two parking bays and a clear route in. It is fully self-contained with its own gas and equipment, so power and water on site are a bonus rather than a must.
Around Chigwell, that could be a garden, a driveway, a farm field, a school field or an event site.
The drive from our kitchen is about 23 miles via the M11, M25 and A414, roughly 50 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: the Central line serves Epping, Theydon Bois, Loughton, Debden, Buckhurst Hill and Chigwell.
Your menu, your way
Our whole menu is available for Thai street food van hire in Chigwell. A good start is Sukhumvit Pad Thai, Isaan Thai Green Curry and Gai Satay with Veg Gun Peacemaker stir fry and spring rolls, but every menu is built around your guests, with vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free dishes and clear allergen labels on everything.
