DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, it’s dark in Underriver at around 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Preparing for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Common questions in Underriver
How far is Underriver from central London?
It is about 22 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Margaret?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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 will check the access.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
