About our Mexican catering in Bishopstoke
We plan each menu with the client, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, burritos and quesadillas, which works well for engagement and anniversary parties and festivals, fairs and markets.
In a smaller place like Bishopstoke, your own garden, drive or a local hall is often the simplest option: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Let us know about the route to the house. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
How it works
Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Winter evenings in Bishopstoke close in by about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.

Before we arrive

Bishopstoke: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Bishopstoke for guests?
Guests can use Eastleigh station, about 1 mile west of Bishopstoke.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Lakeside Country Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
What food do you serve?
Tacos and taco bars, plus burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. See our sample menu.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
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. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
