The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December market in Elmer loses the light at about 4:00pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Common questions in Elmer
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Elmer?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Can you serve near the sea around Elmer?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots typically need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll recommend how to serve.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send your requirements and we will respond with our documents.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
