About our corporate Mexican catering in Lake
We agree each menu with you, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus vegan choices such as black beans. For launches and open days and charity days at work, we will put together a menu of burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls.
Around Lake, team days can be at rural venues or the office. A food truck can work at any of them, given access. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
What corporate Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The length of service
- Food, drinks or both
- Guest numbers
- How many staff you need
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Roughly how many adults and children
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Your date and when you want service to start
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
Lake: your questions answered
Do you cater at coastal events near Lake?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
What’s the nearest station to Lake for guests?
Guests can use Lake station, which is right in Lake.
Do you do a bar for work events?
You can add margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We’ll talk licensing through with you before the day.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Is corporate Mexican catering right for your work event?
Boxed lunches are convenient but cold. A food truck serves it hot. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
