How it works
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. By late September, sunset in Nursling comes at roughly 7:10pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:55pm.

Drinks planning tips
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Allow time for a Temporary Event Notice if one is needed
- Make sure there’s water for guests
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
- Give us numbers for children
We adapt if the timings shift.
Ask us about glassware or cups and we’ll confirm the options with your quote.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
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.
For planners, venues and organisers
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 will follow them.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.

FAQs for Nursling
Could you serve in St James' Park?
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.
We are having a ceremony at Lord's Hill 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.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
There are always alcohol-free options, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
