- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we’re ready before the busiest hours.

FAQs for Farnborough
Could you serve in South Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Farnborough?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Can you serve alcohol at our event?
That depends on licensing. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, and we’ll go from there.

Before you choose a spot
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
Farnborough is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Popular choices

Easy to eat with a fork.
