Whitesmith: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at The Parish Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Is Whitesmith close to London?
It’s about 43 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Always. Under-18s aren’t served alcohol, and anyone who has had too much won’t be served more.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: 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.
What drinks do you serve?
Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata, plus alcohol-free choices.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
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.

Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
DIY drinks tables are easy but need constant topping up. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
