Mexican catering for your event in Barnsole
Our truck and trailer service tends to suit around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case, so tell us your numbers. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and tacos, and it is a good fit for milestone birthdays and school fairs and fundraisers.
For a rural spot like Barnsole, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Working with your venue
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

Common questions in Barnsole
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St James?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Is Barnsole close to London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Do you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Kent included. Find your area.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Our service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Bigger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case.

Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. A December event in Barnsole will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:15pm.
