It’s easy to cater for all ages and diets. Quesadillas suit children, and we plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options. Popular choices include burritos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for family get-togethers and garden get-togethers.

- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle

How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not typically stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. For a winter party in Swalecliffe, it is dark by about 3:50pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- We start by checking your date and the space.
- You choose fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm power, water and the way in.
- We serve hot food at the time you choose.
- We pack away and the party carries on.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
