Mexican catering in Cranleigh, served fresh
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. Popular choices include burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, and it’s a good fit for school fairs and fundraisers and festivals, fairs and markets.
For a place the size of Cranleigh, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Let us know about the route to the house. You will know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Organising a club, school or community event in Cranleigh? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
Comparing your options
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. Our food truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What happens on the day
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. In Cranleigh, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.

Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

Our service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case.
How many guests can you serve?

Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
