What else we do in Rookley Green
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Let us know about any other food at the event
If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adjust.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Rookley Green? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Rookley Green: your questions answered
Do you cater at coastal events near Rookley Green?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Will you travel to a small place like Rookley Green?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
