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.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Planning the serving area
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- Firm, level ground where we can set up
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby
As a London location, Chipstead is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. At midsummer, it’s light in Chipstead until about 9:20pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- First, we check your date.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- We tidy up at the end.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Chipstead questions
Do you come to events in the Surrey Hills 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.
Is it possible to have you in Fames Rough?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options.
Do you do drinks only?
Yes, though it pairs well with tacos. Our Mexican catering can be added too.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
You’ll need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Chipstead. To check your date, tell us about it on our contact page.
