Mexican catering in Charlton-on-Otmoor, from our food truck or trailer
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so nobody ends up with something they don’t want. It works well for office lunches and team days and fundraisers and school events, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
In a small place like Charlton-on-Otmoor, events are typically in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Charlton-on-Otmoor: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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’ll check the access.
Is Charlton-on-Otmoor close to London?
Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
Our food truck or trailer is a mobile kitchen. We set up at your venue, serve hot food to order and pack down afterwards.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Do you do a drinks bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we’ll check that with you.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.

DIY taco night or 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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
