Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
Rain doesn’t stop us serving from the truck or trailer, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. It suits garden get-togethers and retirement and leaving parties, with tacos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Somewhere like Lower Halstow, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

For event organisers in Lower Halstow
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
