Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
For somewhere as remote as Binstead, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
What we offer
- Loaded nachos
- Tacos
- Burritos
- Build-your-own taco bar
- Quesadillas
- Burrito bowls
Mexican catering in Binstead, from our food truck or trailer
Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. Popular choices include tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos, and it suits leaving dos and retirement parties and weddings, day or evening.
There may be a hall or club near Binstead if your garden is small; a truck or trailer can work at any of them, with permission and a level spot. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Common questions in Binstead
Do you cater at coastal events near Binstead?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots usually need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
We’re having a ceremony at Holy Cross Church: can you cater afterwards?
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.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What food do you serve?
Tacos and taco bars, plus burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. Our sample menu has more detail.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cater for special diets?
We can. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Catering for every guest
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Let us know about any other food at the event

- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
