How the day works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. A winter wedding in Stanton St John gets dark early, at about 3:55pm in December, so the evening food will be served after dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Can you handle dietary needs at our wedding?

Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
