Nearby historic houses include Adwell House (4 miles north-east) and Garsington Manor (4.6 miles north-west).

An outdoor bar near the Chilterns National Landscape, within about 6 miles of Chalgrove, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we will check with you.

For event organisers in Chalgrove
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’ll follow them.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Popular choices
- Margaritas
- Soft drinks
- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
- Horchata
- Mexican beer
- Fruit aguas frescas
Can I do a taco night myself?
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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. At midsummer, it is light in Chalgrove until about 9:25pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:10pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We talk through licensing with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
- We pack down when the bar closes.

Common questions in Chalgrove
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Chalgrove.

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you provide bar staff?
Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. Responsible serving comes first.
