- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
- Agreement from the venue for our bar
- A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
London streets around St Mary Cray can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
