Mexican catering in Alfold Crossways, from our truck or trailer
A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. It works well for company summer parties and birthday parties, serving tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos.
For a rural spot like Alfold Crossways, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.

Questions from Alfold Crossways
Will you travel to a small place like Alfold Crossways?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Is it possible to have you in Fir Tree Copse?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What can we choose from?
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria or spiced mushrooms. Take a look at the sample menu.
Do you cater for big events?
That depends on the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
What if it rains?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, though guests need a covered place to eat.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Tell us how many children are coming
On the day, we arrive in good time to park up and get ready. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters.
Prices and what affects them
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- Food, drinks or both
- Travel, parking and access
- Your choice of food and drinks
- How many guests we are serving
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
