Should I do it myself?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

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.

The process

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. Evening drinks in Speenhamland stay light until about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
  2. We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
  3. You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
  4. We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
  5. We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Find out what power and water are available

Speenhamland: your questions answered

Could you serve in Victoria Park?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.

Is Speenhamland close to London?

It’s about 53 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

What do you need at the venue?

Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.

Can you run a bar?

Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.

How much is a food truck for an event?

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

Can guests build their own tacos?

Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
