Ballinger Common questions

Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Ballinger Common?

We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.

Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Chilterns 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.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

Can guests build their own tacos?

Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will recommend how to serve.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.

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 cater for children?

Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:

  • Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
  • Ensure one filling is vegan
  • Put allergies in writing for us
  • Make sure guests have somewhere to sit

If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you are ready.

Nachos to share can keep guests going before the bar opens.

For planners, venues and organisers

Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
