How it works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. In Thatcham, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is normally served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Send us your date, where the taco bar will go, numbers and dietary needs.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

We are having a ceremony at United Reformed Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.

Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.

Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. We confirm power and water when you book.

That depends on your timings and the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Is the taco bar staffed?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so your hosts don’t need to. We pack it away afterwards.

We cover London and the South East, West Berkshire included. Find your area.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
What we need at the venue

- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
