DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
How it works
Here’s how the day typically runs: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Winter evenings in Ventnor close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.

Working with your venue
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Diets, allergies and planning
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Tell us what other food is being served
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch, and guests are welcome to ask before ordering.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
Space, access and the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
Ventnor is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Questions from Ventnor
Could you come to a seaside event near Ventnor?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
We are having a ceremony at St Catherine's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What space do you need?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we’ll confirm what we need. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Do you serve in the rain?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, though guests need a covered place to eat.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
