DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

The process
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. Christmas markets in Chidham trade in the dark from about 4:00pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, our pitch needs and the paperwork your event asks for.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
