Shutford questions
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Martin: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Shutford?
Yes, as long as we’re available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
How many guests can the truck serve?
That depends on your timings and the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll recommend how to serve.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will go through the licensing with you.
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
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.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

A bowl is a good choice for guests avoiding tortillas.
