DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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.

Hollingdean questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to William Clarke Park?

Guests can use Moulsecoomb station, about 0.5 miles east of Hollingdean.
Can you handle a lunchtime rush?
With fillings ready to go, service is quick.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We serve vegan fillings such as black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
