Northend: your questions answered
Is Northend close to London?
It’s about 37 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you come to events 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.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will go through the licensing with you.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. 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 tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
On the menu in Northend

How the day works

By late September, sunset in Northend comes at roughly 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
