About our Mexican catering in Charlton
Our truck or trailer travels to events across Charlton and nearby: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, wherever we can get in safely. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits leaving parties and family gatherings and christenings.
Somewhere as small as Charlton, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
About the menu
Build-your-own taco bar
The taco bar keeps things sociable, and guests with different diets can choose what suits them, with every dish labelled.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings are agreed with you, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
Allergen information is on hand for every dish, and guests are welcome to ask before ordering.
Quesadillas go down well with children.
The process
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Winter evenings in Charlton close in by about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
How to get a price

If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Common questions in Charlton
Do you cater in villages like Charlton?

How much does Mexican catering cost in Charlton?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
What do you need at the venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we will confirm what we need. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.

Other catering in Charlton
Mexican catering or something else?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. Our food truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- A clear quote
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Allergen information for every dish
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
