DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Common questions in Somers Town
What’s the nearest station to Somers Town for guests?
Somers Town has its own station: London Euston station.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Lewis Cubitt 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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Do you come to Somers Town?
We do. Somers Town is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the event needs and we will send the paperwork your event asks for.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with 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.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
