Questions to ask before booking

Should I do it myself?

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Comparing your options

Buffet trays can go cold and tired. Our fillings stay hot and the bowls are topped up as guests come back. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Why us?

  • Service planned around your numbers
  • We cover Shirburn and the whole of Oxfordshire
  • A menu built around your guests
  • A plan agreed before the day

Before you choose a spot

  • Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
  • A clear area in front of the station
  • Permission from the venue for us to set up

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Dietary needs and planning tips

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:

  • Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
  • Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
  • Flag any guest with coeliac disease

Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.

Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.

Shirburn: your questions answered

Can you cater a reception after a service at All Saints Church?

Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.

Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?

The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue, and guests build their own plates.

Can you set up where a truck can’t get in?

The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.

Do you need power and water?

It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.

Do you come to Shirburn?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Shirburn. For a quote, tell us about it on our contact page.

Can guests build their own tacos?

Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.

What happens if it rains?

The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
