Working with your venue
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Organising a club, school or community event in Shipton-on-Cherwell? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
How the day works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. In Shipton-on-Cherwell, midsummer sunset is about 9:30pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:10pm, which means evening food is typically served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- You send us your wedding date, venue, numbers and how you see 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.
- We arrive, set up and serve the food at the agreed times.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Preparing for the day

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:

A taco bar is laid out on a table, and guests can be called up by table.
We can feed your photographer and band too if you add them to the final count.

Questions from Shipton-on-Cherwell
What’s the nearest station to Shipton-on-Cherwell for guests?
The closest is Tackley station, roughly 2.3 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like Shipton-on-Cherwell?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
