What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. By late September, it is dark in Spencers Wood at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Ask the venue about power and water

Planning help
Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Confirm power and water with traders
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
We clear the pitch and leave it as we found it.
Our drinks bar, where the event’s licensing allows.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A level pitch on firm ground
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Mexican street food or something else?
Hot-cabinet food lacks appeal. Everything we serve is assembled to order. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book with us
- Allergen-aware menus
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Service planned around your numbers
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
