Mexican catering in Coleman's Hatch
Dietary needs and planning tips
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Add our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
How our Mexican catering works in Coleman's Hatch
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. At leaving parties and weddings and evening receptions, we can serve fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and tacos and more.
Somewhere as small as Coleman's Hatch, 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Why choose Mexican catering in Coleman's Hatch?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

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.

We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
