Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Rushenden: your questions answered
Can you trade at a school fair in Rushenden?
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.
What’s the nearest station to Rushenden for guests?
Guests can use Queenborough station, about 0.6 miles north-east of Rushenden.
Can you do dairy-free food?

Do you come to Rushenden?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Rushenden and across Kent. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
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.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
