How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, it is dark in Barnes Cray at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- You get our stall menu, what we need at the pitch and the paperwork you request.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.

Common questions in Barnes Cray
Which station is closest to Barnes Cray?
Guests can use Slade Green station, about 0.7 miles north of Barnes Cray.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Braeburn Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
What documents can you send?
Tell us what the event needs and we’ll send the paperwork your event asks for.

Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
Yes, at set times to suit your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
