DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Lower Basildon: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Lower Basildon?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
We’re having a ceremony at St Bartholomew's Church: can you cater afterwards?
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 we need to provide plates?
Ask us when you enquire, and we will set out what we can do in the quote.
Can you park at my house?
Often, yes, if there’s level, firm ground and access wide and high enough for the truck or trailer. Send a photo and we’ll check.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better, but it’s always worth asking. We will check availability for you.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
