Planning the serving area
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- A spot away from neighbours
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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. Read our guide to taco bars.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
When service ends, we pack away.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.
The process
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. A hired food truck at a summer event in Knightwood can serve in daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:10pm. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

FAQs for Knightwood
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Francis?
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.
What’s the nearest station to Knightwood for guests?
Guests can use Chandlers Ford station, about 0.8 miles south-east of Knightwood.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll recommend how to serve.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Hog roasts are popular with meat eaters, but tacos and bowls make vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to feed. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
