Mexican catering for Broad Ford events
How our Mexican catering works in Broad Ford
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. We serve burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos, and it’s a good fit for family celebrations and birthday parties.
For a rural spot like Broad Ford, 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. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
How we price Mexican catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Guest numbers
- The length of service
- Whether you need disposables
- How many staff you need
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Broad Ford questions
What’s the nearest station to Broad Ford for guests?
Guests can use Marden station, about 3.6 miles north-east of Broad Ford.
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
Diets are planned in advance, with options kept separate, though we cannot guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What are your prices?
There’s no fixed price list, as each event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What we need at the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Space for guests to queue
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
