For event organisers in Laughton
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Laughton? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will set out what we can do in your quote.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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’ll do the serving.
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.
Step by step
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. In Laughton, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Getting ready for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Give us your final numbers and diets
