Planning an event in Bassett Green?

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

FAQs for Bassett Green

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Riverside Park?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

How far is Bassett Green from London?

It’s about 68 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Can you serve in the rain?

The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

Can you cater in a back garden?

That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.

Can we add drinks?

Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will talk licensing through with you.

Are plates and napkins included?

Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Organising for someone else?

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.

Choosing a Mexican caterer

The process

The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. December events in Bassett Green lose the light at about 4:00pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:25pm.

  1. Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
  2. We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
  3. We check power, water and timings with the venue.
  4. The truck serves at the agreed times.
  5. Once service ends, we tidy up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
