Mexican catering for Chithurst events
How our Mexican catering works in Chithurst
Keep it simple or go further: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. For family celebrations and company summer parties, we can serve burritos, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Somewhere as small as Chithurst, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Daylight in Chithurst runs to about 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Let us know if service will run after dark, and we’ll talk about lighting.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our food truck or trailer.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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.
What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Chithurst: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at Chithurst Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Will you travel to a small place like Chithurst?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we cannot promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How does your Mexican catering work?
We park our truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We don’t publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you will get a quote for your event.

Build-your-own taco bar
A taco bar is relaxed and sociable, and it makes mixed diets easy.
Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. We serve them with salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.

- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
