Planning Thai street food van hire in South Ockendon
Nearly two in five homes in South Ockendon (41%) are terraced houses. Terraced gardens are often long and narrow, so we plan a compact cooking station or serve a buffet indoors with the food cooked fresh nearby.
Ockendon station is about a mile from the centre of South Ockendon. Guests can arrive by train, which keeps parking simple and lets everyone enjoy a drink.
Around 25% of homes in South Ockendon 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 South Ockendon
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 South Ockendon, that could be a garden, a driveway, a farm field, a school field or an event site.
The drive from our kitchen is about 21 miles via the A13, A1089 and M25, roughly 45 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: c2c serves Grays, Tilbury, Purfleet, Chafford Hundred, Stanford-le-Hope and East Tilbury.
Your menu, your way
Our whole menu is available for Thai street food van hire in South Ockendon. A good start is Veg Gun Peacemaker stir fry, spring rolls and Sukhumvit Pad Thai with Isaan Thai Green Curry and Gai Satay, but every menu is built around your guests, with vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free dishes and clear allergen labels on everything.
