Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How our Mexican catering works in Ashendon
We bring our truck or trailer to events in and around Ashendon: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding. We serve loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos, which works well for markets and community events and charity and school events.
In a hamlet or village like Ashendon, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adjust.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
How we price Mexican catering
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- What the venue already provides
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Guest numbers
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The address or venue name
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
For event organisers in Ashendon
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Ashendon questions
Will you travel to a small place like Ashendon?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Ashendon for guests?
The closest is Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, roughly 3.9 miles away.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we’ll plan around them.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Can you come to a private house?
It 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.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
How the day works
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. In Ashendon, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Name one person we can ask on the day
