- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Think about cover if the weather turns
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.
Where the truck can go in Horden
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The length of service
- The menu you choose
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Serving staff
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Expected numbers
- The date and time of the event
- How we drive in and where we can park
Still deciding on the menu? That is fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. When you’re ready, use our quote form.
How it works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Late-September events in Horden see sunset at about 7:00pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
How to get a price

What else we do in Horden
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
