FAQ

Got Questions? We've Got You.

The most common questions from regulars and first-timers.

Where are you parked today?

We're posted up at Nine Locks Brewing — 221 Waverley Rd, Dartmouth. Hours are Mon–Fri 12–7 PM, Sat 12–8 PM, closed Sunday.

Want to know where we'll be tomorrow or next week? Check the schedule page — we update it Sunday nights.

What time do you open and close?

Mon–Fri: 12 PM – 7 PM. Sat: 12 PM – 8 PM. Sun: closed (we rest, the fryer rests).

Pro tip: lunch rush hits 12:30–1:15. Show up at noon sharp or after 2 PM for shortest wait.

How do I order — walk up or call ahead?

Walk up to the truck window — that's the whole system. We cook to order, hot off the flat-top, no apps required.

For catering or large group orders (10+ people), give us a call so we can prep ahead.

Do you cater weddings, events, and private parties?

Yes — weddings, corporate lunches, festivals, birthdays, private bookings. We've done everything from 30-person backyards to 400-person company picnics.

Head to the Catering page or call us directly to start a quote. Give us 2–3 weeks notice when you can.

Do you have a gluten-free bun?

Yes — ask for a GF bun at the window, no upcharge. Our smash patties, cheese, and toppings are naturally gluten-free.

Important: our fryers handle both gluten and naturally-GF items, so if you have a severe allergy, please flag it ahead of time. We'll work with you.

Is the menu kid-friendly?

Very. Plain smash burger + hand-cut fries is the go-to. We can leave off pickles, onions, sauce — just ask.

The MACnificent (our mac-and-cheese-topped smash) is also a quiet kid favourite. Spice is never default; it's only on items where it's part of the name.

Can I book the truck for a private event at my venue?

Yes — we travel across HRM and beyond for private events. Backyards, breweries, office parking lots, family farms, we've parked there.

Minimum headcounts and travel fees depend on distance and date — easiest is a quick call so we can quote you exact.

Where's the menu and how do I see prices?

Full menu lives on the Menu page — every item with a name and an honest description (we use 100% PEI spuds and hand-cut, old-fashioned french fries, in case you were wondering).

Prices vary slightly by event and location, so we keep them at the window where you order.
