Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Plan where rubbish goes
- Ask guests with serious allergies to talk to us first
- Check the width of your gate or drive
- Let the neighbours know
If it rains, we can still serve from the truck or trailer, though guests will want cover to eat under.

Rownhams: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St John: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Is Rownhams close to London?
About 70 miles from central London, and we cover it.
How early should we book?
The sooner the better, but it’s always worth asking. We’ll check availability for you.
Do you cater at halls and clubs?
Often, yes. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t usually stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered.

- We start by checking your date and the space.
- You pick the fillings and extras.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- Service starts at the agreed time.
- We pack away and the party carries on.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Give us your final numbers and diets
