Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
What happens on the day
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. A December event in Bitterne Manor will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Preparing for the day

- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Mexican catering around Bitterne Manor
Bitterne Manor is about 1 mile east of Southampton, in Southampton. Whether your event is in the middle of Bitterne Manor or on the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Bitterne Manor is one of 40 towns and villages in Southampton where we can bring Mexican catering.
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Denys, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Bitterne Manor Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking. Venues in and around the New Forest National Park, within about 8 miles of Bitterne Manor, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book. Coastal events near Bitterne Manor, which is within about 2 miles of the sea, bring wind and sand into the planning. Tell us exactly where you’d like us and we’ll check access.
Mexican catering in SO18, SO17 and SO14 is planned around your venue and access and your guests.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Bitterne Manor
Which station is closest to Bitterne Manor?
Bitterne station, in Bitterne Manor itself.
Is it possible to have you in Rockstone Place Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
What if it rains?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, though guests need a covered place to eat.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, Southampton included. See all areas.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We don’t publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What Mexican catering costs
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Travel, parking and access
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
The menu, item by item
Tacos
Street tacos are small, quick and full of flavour. They come with fresh salsas and toppings.
Build-your-own taco bar
A serving table of fillings, salsas and toppings, with tortillas kept warm. Each guest makes tacos their way.
Comparing your options
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
What you get with us
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- A clear quote
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
See how we price and the cost guide.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
What we need at the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar.
