- The menu you choose
- Plates, napkins and cutlery

What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The venue or postcode

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
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.
Questions from Tinkers Cross
Can you cater a reception after a service at Sandleheath Village Hall?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you come out to small places like Tinkers Cross?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can we have the bar on its own?
Yes. Book the bar on its own, or with our Mexican catering.
Will someone run the bar?
Our bar staff run the bar. Responsible serving comes first.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, Hampshire included. See all areas.
