Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
How it compares
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

Questions from Eltham
Is it possible to have you in Horn Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
What about parking in Eltham?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Where can the truck park?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we will check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you cater for special diets?
There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
