About our corporate Mexican catering in Shelvin
Service is planned around your schedule, so a team can be fed within a lunch break. Let us know how long the break is. It works well for training days and summer staff parties, serving nachos to share, burrito bowls and tacos.
Team away days in the countryside around Shelvin suit a food truck: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot and a way in. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
Space, access and the venue
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- 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’ll advise.

We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Lunch service in Shelvin is in daylight year-round; in December the sun sets at about 3:50pm. For an evening event later in the year, ask facilities about lighting the car park or courtyard.

- You choose the menu.
- We provide any documents the site requests.
- Staff order at the hatch or the taco bar.
- We serve, then clear away.
Getting ready for the day

Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.

- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
