Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

FAQs for Colthrop
We are having a ceremony at St Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
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 villages like Colthrop?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can we add margaritas?
Yes, our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will go through the licensing with you and your venue.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you cater the whole day?
Yes: one part of the day, or both main meals. Tell us what you have in mind.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Wedding Mexican catering or something else?
Plated wedding meals need a kitchen and more staff. Our food truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and the style is more relaxed. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
What you get with us
- Fast service, even with a queue

How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. A winter wedding in Colthrop gets dark early, at about 4:00pm in December, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- Together we choose a taco bar, evening food or both, and we send a quote.
- We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
- On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us when you want service to start
