Mexican catering in Andover, served fresh
Need taco catering in Andover? Tacos are the heart of the menu: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. For garden get-togethers and anniversaries and engagements, we can serve fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos and quesadillas for your guests.
In Andover, gardens come in all sizes, and access matters more than size. A drive, a side gate or a car park next door can all help. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

- Whether you need disposables
- The number of people
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Serving staff
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.

- Roughly how many adults and children
- How we drive in and where we can park

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
Andover questions
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Which station should guests use for Andover?
Guests can use Andover station, about 0.5 miles west of Andover.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
How many guests can you cater for?
That depends on the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we will take it from there.
Do you come to Andover?
We do. We serve at events in Andover and across Hampshire. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
About the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Every taco needs salsa and guacamole, and guests add as much as they like.
Loaded nachos
Crisp tortilla chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole, made for sharing.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.

- Charity and school events

For a fête or sports day at a school such as St John the Baptist Catholic Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.

Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests build their own.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you.
The process
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Winter evenings in Andover close in by about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Before the day, we agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
