FAQs for Platt's Heath
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Kiln Wood?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
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 cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Can children have drinks from the bar?
Every bar has alcohol-free choices, from aguas frescas to soft drinks.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A staffed bar means everyone is served, including non-drinkers. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
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.
