DIY taco night versus a caterer
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- What the venue already provides
- Parking and the route in
- Guest numbers
- How many staff you need
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground

- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Common questions in Lions Green
Do you come out to small places like Lions Green?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Lions Green?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, so we don’t serve passers-by. Event organisers should see street food for festivals.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.

Each hire is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
Diets are planned with you in advance, though we can’t guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Tell us about coeliac guests
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
We arrive in the agreed window and park where we’ve arranged. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
