Comparing your options
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. Our food truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Organising for someone else?
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
