Questions from Burstow
Is Burstow close to London?
About 24 miles from central London.
Will you travel to a small place like Burstow?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
What space do you need?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we’ll check it works. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Space for guests to queue
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. Winter evenings in Burstow close in by about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.

- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- Before the day, we agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our truck or trailer.

Comparing your options
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
