Questions from Cole Henley
Which station should guests use for Cole Henley?
The closest is Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Cole Henley?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. Christmas markets in Cole Henley 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 9:25pm.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates 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.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
For planners, venues and organisers
