FAQs for Barford St John
Do you come out to small places like Barford St John?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Barford St John for guests?
The closest is Kings Sutton station, roughly 3.9 miles away.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you keep it mild?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
How much does Mexican catering cost in Barford St John?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned in advance, with options kept separate, though we cannot guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.
Comparing your options
A barbecue often means a host tied to the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our truck or trailer. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What you get with us
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
