Burritos
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings rolled in a large tortilla.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a filling and fresh toppings, served from the hatch.
The process
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. For a winter party in Canning Town, it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.

That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Yes, if there’s space outside for the truck or trailer and the venue agrees. Check the venue allows a catering vehicle.

That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.

It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
