DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema. We serve burrito bowls, pickled onions and toppings and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for anniversary parties and wedding breakfasts.
In a hamlet or village like Sunningwell, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
- A level area for the taco-bar table
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Menu ideas

- Tortilla chips
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Salsas and guacamole

Questions from Sunningwell
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Sunningwell?
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.
Is Sunningwell close to London?
It’s about 53 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What’s on the menu?
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 long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Sunningwell.
