Can I do a taco night myself?
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 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.
Food truck hire in Tangley, served fresh
Pair the truck with our Mexican drinks bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. We can add a taco-bar station next to the truck. On the menu are loaded nachos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole, which works well for private outdoor parties and leaving parties.
In a rural place like Tangley, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Agree service times with us
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
We arrive in the agreed window and park where we have arranged. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added to the booking.
Space, access and the venue
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How many guests we are serving
- Your choice of food and drinks
- How long we are needed on site
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Expected numbers
- The date and time of the event
- How we drive in and where we can park
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
Comparing your options
Several trucks mean several quotes and arrival times. One Mexican truck with a varied menu keeps things simple. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
