DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered.

- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.

Preparing for the day

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Eastrop Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.

How we price Mexican street food
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Parking and the route in
- What’s on the menu
- Food, drinks or both
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Your menu ideas
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, tell us about it on our contact page.
