Corporate Mexican catering for your work event in Marchwood
Hot food from a truck makes lunch something to look forward to, not just a break from it. It suits working lunches and client and customer events, with tacos, nachos to share and a build-your-own taco bar.
Work events near Marchwood might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. A truck or trailer suits all of them, with level ground and access. We prepare everything fresh for your work event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A lunchtime team event in Marchwood has daylight all year, even in December when sunset is about 4:00pm. Evening events are a different matter in winter, so check the site’s outdoor lighting.
- First, we check the date and the site.
- You pick tacos, bowls, a taco bar or a mix.
- We send the paperwork your venue asks for.
- Staff order at the hatch or the taco bar.
- We serve, then clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Marchwood questions
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Could you come to a seaside event near Marchwood?
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.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
How much does corporate Mexican catering cost in Marchwood?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide 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.
