DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Questions from Compton
Could you serve our guests after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
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 come to events in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you handle dietary needs at our wedding?
Diets are planned in advance and kept separate. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the wedding.
