FAQs for Tooting Bec
Is it possible to have you in Wandle 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 will send what they need from us.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Tooting Bec?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you come to Tooting Bec?
We do. Tooting Bec is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Book crew catering in advance
- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
- Share power and water details early
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
Orders are served throughout the event.
Alcohol-free aguas frescas.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

- Flat, firm ground
