Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
How the day works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. Winter evenings in Ruckinge close in by about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

Ruckinge: your questions answered
Will you travel to a small place like Ruckinge?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary Magdalene?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
How does a taco bar work?
Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
It depends on the event and the timings. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. Service is timed around speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
How we price taco bar hire
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- How many guests we are serving
- How long we’re needed on site
- Travel, parking and access
- Food, drinks or both
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

- A picture of where we’d park
