Old Town questions

Could you serve our guests after a service at Croydon Minster?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Duppas Hill?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.

Is Mexican food OK for kids?

It is popular with children, particularly quesadillas. Tell us how many children and their ages.

Is the food made fresh?

Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.

Do we need to provide plates?

Tell us what you need and we will explain the options with your quote.

What about power on site?

Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

How long do you serve for?

We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

We keep vegetarian and vegan fillings separate. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to speak to us first.

How to compare caterers

DIY taco night versus a caterer

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

How it works

From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your party. Throwing a late-May party in Old Town? The sun sets at about 8:50pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.

  1. Send us your date, address and numbers.
  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We check access and arrive before your guests.
  4. Guests order at the hatch or build their own tacos.
  5. We clear our area when service ends.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Let us know the timings for the day

Getting a price

It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
