DIY taco night or 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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Questions from Harwell
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Matthew: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Do you cater in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Who handles the licensing?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
