Step by step
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. December weddings in Drayton lose the light by about 4:00pm, so the evening food will be served after dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- You get a suggested wedding menu and a quote to match.
- 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.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Give us a contact for the day

About the menu
Burrito bowls
A burrito bowl is a good alternative to tacos.
Salsas and guacamole
The salsas and guacamole finish every plate.
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Questions from Drayton
Can you cater a reception after a service at Drayton Methodist Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Do you cater at coastal events near Drayton?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll recommend how to serve.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
