Mexican catering in Chiddingly, from our food truck or trailer
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food, which suits informal events. For big birthday celebrations and weddings and evening receptions, we’ll put together a menu of quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls for your guests.
For a rural spot like Chiddingly, 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. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

What else we do in Chiddingly
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Common questions in Chiddingly
Is Chiddingly close to London?
About 43 miles from central London, and we cover it.
We are having a ceremony at The Parish Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Can we add a bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will check the licensing with you before the day.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
How much will it cost?
We quote for each event, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
What food do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria or spiced mushrooms. The sample menu shows the options.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
