Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
Staff stay at the taco bar to refill bowls and answer questions.
Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.
How our taco bar hire works in Boyatt Wood
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. It works well for birthday celebrations and christenings and family parties, with warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
Around Boyatt Wood, a taco bar can stand beside our truck on a drive or lawn. If the truck cannot reach the garden, we park as close as we can and set the station up where your guests are. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

What else we do in Boyatt Wood
Boyatt Wood: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at St. Peter's Church?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Could you serve in Lakeside Country 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’ll send what they need from us.
What does a taco bar cost?
There’s no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
What do you need at the venue?
Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. We confirm power and water when you book.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How it works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. From late May to late September, sunset in Boyatt Wood moves from about 8:55pm to 7:10pm. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Get in touch with your date and headcount.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
