The menu, item by item
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole, for sharing.
Tacos from the hatch
A taco is ideal food from a truck, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Count children separately
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck.
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
FAQs for Watlington
How far is Watlington from London?
About 41 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
