Mexican catering in Ashurst Wood
How our Mexican catering works in Ashurst Wood
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. Popular choices include quesadillas, tacos and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it suits weddings and evening receptions and engagement celebrations.
In a rural place like Ashurst Wood, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Questions from Ashurst Wood
Do you come to events in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
We are having a ceremony at St Dunstan: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
Every event is quoted for individually, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
Do you cover Ashurst Wood?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Ashurst Wood and the rest of West Sussex. To check your date, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in Ashurst Wood until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- 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.

Why choose Mexican catering in Ashurst Wood?
