Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Make sure one filling is vegan
- Set out seating near the bar
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.

You choose the fillings with us, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, with a vegan filling like black bean and sweet potato or spiced mushroom. It works well for staff parties and anniversary parties, with slow-cooked fillings kept hot, a build-your-own taco bar and warm corn and flour tortillas.
Around Petts Wood, a taco bar suits venues and gardens that a food truck can’t get into. Our staff set up a serving station on a table, and guests build their own tacos.

We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
