Lower Assendon questions
Can you trade at a school fair in Lower Assendon?
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 come to events in the Chilterns National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Do you have vegan options?
We do. Our stall menu includes vegan and gluten-free options.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. At midsummer, events in Lower Assendon stay light until about 9:25pm, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
