Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Timings and hours
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- What’s on the menu
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- The venue or postcode
- Expected numbers

- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. When you’re ready, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Mexican bar hire or something else?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand, including non-drinkers. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- A menu agreed with you
- Quoted for your event

How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. By late September, sunset in South Hinksey comes at roughly 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 9:00pm.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- We check the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
How to get a price
