Can I do a taco night myself?

Mexican catering in Finkley Down, from our truck or trailer
A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so each plate is exactly how they like it. It works well for fairs and festivals and garden get-togethers, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos.
Somewhere like Finkley Down, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
What affects the price in Finkley Down
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- What the venue already provides
- Travel, parking and access
- Serving staff
- How long we’re needed on site
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- What you’d like on the menu
- Expected numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field

Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests help themselves.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
