How it works
We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. A summer party in Newington Butts stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Tell us when and where, and how many.
- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We confirm access, then arrive early on the day.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own tacos.
- We clear our area when service ends.
How to prepare
- Find out what power and water are available
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

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 go through the licensing with you.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
