Mexican catering in Brighton Hill, from our food truck or trailer
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and burritos, which works well for wedding breakfasts and evening food and leaving dos and retirement parties.
Around Brighton Hill, events are often in gardens, fields, local halls or nearby venues. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. Winter evenings in Brighton Hill close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.

Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The length of service
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Serving staff
- Your choice of food and drinks
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Can you cater a reception after a service at The Church Of Christ The King?
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 it possible to have you in Eastrop Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
