When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule.

Catering events across SM1
SM1 covers everything from Sutton, Carshalton and The Wrythe to 0 small villages and hamlets, and a truck or trailer suits most settings with access and level ground. In towns, plan parking and loading; in villages, tell us about lanes, gates and ground.
Sutton: Guests leaving a church like St Nicholas Church after a christening could walk over to a nearby garden where the tacos are ready. A school such as Robin Hood Junior School running a summer fair or fundraiser could book a taco truck. Evenings in Sutton stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Tell us how many children are coming
When service ends, we pack down and clear our area quietly.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
For event organisers in SM1

Questions from SM1
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you serve drinks as well?
Yes. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
What about power on site?
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.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
What are your prices?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we will send a quote for your event.
