About our Mexican catering in Buxted
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. Popular choices include burritos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it’s a good fit for charity and school events and big birthday celebrations.
In a rural place like Buxted, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

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’ll do the serving.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
What’s on the menu
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese inside, cut into wedges.
Burritos and burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings rolled in a large tortilla, or served as a bowl instead.
Perfect for your event in Buxted
You don’t need a kitchen, so gardens, fields and outdoor venues are all possible.
Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. In Buxted, you could book us for events such as:
- Summer garden parties
- Anniversaries and engagements
- Charity and school events
- Company summer parties
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, the food generally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.
Questions to ask before you book
- How many staff are serving, and for how long
- What happens if it rains
- Travel and parking costs
- What the caterer needs from your venue
What happens on the day
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Evenings in Buxted stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Mexican catering or something else?
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, because fillings and toppings are kept separate.
