Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Share your running order
- Count children separately

We can serve through rain, though a marquee or gazebo helps guests stay dry.

Food truck hire in Alkerton, served fresh

Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

Your questions about food truck hire in Alkerton
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Michael: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Can we hire your food truck for a private party in Alkerton?
Yes, as long as we are available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. See all areas.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
Diets are planned with you in advance, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
