About our Mexican catering in Chilgrove
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. It suits school fairs and fundraisers and markets and community events, with burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and quesadillas.
In a hamlet or village like Chilgrove, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Comparing your options
A drop-off platter is easy, but nobody remembers it. Live service from a truck or trailer gives guests hot food and something to talk about. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
