Diets, allergies and planning

- Schedule crew meals
- Confirm power and water with traders
Crew meals are served at set times.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions in Skippers Hill
Will you travel to a small place like Skippers Hill?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Skippers Hill?
Yes, if the school is happy and there’s access for the truck or trailer. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
Can you feed our volunteers?
We can. Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the details, and we will confirm availability and requirements.
