Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot.
Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.
Questions from Ashampstead Green
Do you come to events in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Which station should guests use for Ashampstead Green?
Guests can use Goring & Streatley station, about 3.1 miles north-east of Ashampstead Green.
What if a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
How does taco bar hire work?
Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
What does taco bar hire cost?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a quote.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. Service is timed around speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.

Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. We confirm power and water when you book.

Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- What’s on the menu
- Parking and the route in
- What the venue already provides
- Food, drinks or both
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and rough timings
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
