Common questions in Lyford
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Lyford?
Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Tell us about the lane, gates, ground and parking.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
How much does food truck hire cost in Lyford?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.

What happens on the day

- Ask us whether your date is available.
- You get a menu for the hatch and 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.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.

About the menu
Burrito bowls
Bowls suit anyone skipping tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt.
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese and a filling.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
