DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Common questions in Deadwater
How far is Deadwater from central London?
It is about 42 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What’s the nearest station to Deadwater for guests?
Guests can use Liphook station, about 3.6 miles south-east of Deadwater.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Can we add drinks?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will go through the licensing with you.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, on a menu and timings agreed with you. At festivals and markets we trade to the public; see our street food catering page.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Send allergy details in writing
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Check gate widths and any height limits
Wet weather does not close the hatch, but guests will want a covered area to eat.
Ask us about evening food later on, quoted with the main booking.

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Step by step
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. A Christmas party in Deadwater with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Before we arrive
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Is food truck hire right for your event?
