Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you need disposables
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
What we need to know
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Expected numbers
- The date and time of the event
- What power and water the site has
- The address or venue name
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
How it compares
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Our food truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot and the site’s approval. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
