DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
How it compares
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar handles vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests without separate plates. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

FAQs for Upper Heyford
Can you cater a reception after a service at Heyford Park Chapel?
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. Send us the reception address.
How far is Upper Heyford from London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London.
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 do you need at the venue?
Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we will check it works. We also need the venue’s permission.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
