Mexican catering in Ardingly, from our food truck or trailer
We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. For office lunches and team days and family gatherings and christenings, we can serve loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls.
Somewhere like Ardingly, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Why choose Mexican catering in Ardingly?
A food truck gives guests somewhere to gather, and the smell of warm tortillas brings people over.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Retirement and leaving parties
- Family gatherings and christenings
- Office lunches and team days
- Engagement celebrations
For a fête or sports day at a school such as St Peter's CofE Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.

Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Mexican catering or something else?
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
