Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Timings and hours
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Parking and the route in
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, send a quick message through our quote form.

Can I do a taco night myself?
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, with allergen information for every dish.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. Around midsummer it stays light in Burghfield Common until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
