How our Mexican catering works in Banbury
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. You don’t need a kitchen at the venue. We serve burritos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos, and it is a good fit for weddings, day or evening and garden get-togethers.
In Banbury, 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Planners, venues and businesses
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it is a good fit.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Count children separately
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Let us know about any other food at the event
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Quesadillas go down well with children.
What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Planning an evening event in Banbury? Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May, 9:30pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.
- 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.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Preparing for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Banbury: venues, access and local tips
Banbury is in Oxfordshire. From the centre of Banbury to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Banbury is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Banbury to Oxford (about 22 miles away).
Before you pencil in People's Park, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement. By road, Banbury is on or near the A361 and A422, which makes it easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer.
Here we cover the OX16 and OX17 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on High Street, Market Place and Grimsbury Square. With the A361 and A422 close by, Banbury is easy for us to reach. If your venue is just outside Banbury, we also cover Neithrop (1 mile west), Ruscote (1 mile west), Grimsbury (1 mile east), Drayton (1 mile north-west) and North Newington (2 miles west). Further out, we also cater in Bicester (14 miles south-east), Bure Park (13 miles south-east), Chipping Norton (12 miles south-west), Woodstock (15 miles south), Bloxham (3 miles south) and Charlbury (14 miles south-west).

Planning the serving area
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Comparing your options
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Why book with us
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- A menu agreed with you
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both

How we price Mexican catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Travel, parking and access
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Food, drinks or both
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you’re ready, use our quote form.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
