Mexican catering in Dallington, from our food truck or trailer
We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits staff parties and office lunches and family celebrations.
In a hamlet or village like Dallington, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You will know what’s included before booking: menu, timings and any add-ons.

FAQs for Dallington
We are having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Giles: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Will you travel to a small place like Dallington?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What food do you serve?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. See our sample menu.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service usually suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
For event organisers in Dallington
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it is a good fit.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- The length of service
- Serving staff
- Travel, parking and access
- What’s on the menu
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Expected numbers
- Your menu ideas
- Any dietary needs and allergies
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you’re ready, tell us about it on our contact page.
Popular choices
Salsas and guacamole
Salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your event, with lime and fresh toppings.
Burritos and burrito bowls
Burritos are filling and easy to eat on the move. The bowl version suits anyone avoiding tortillas.
Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- Space for guests to queue
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Tell us how many children are coming
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so everything goes out hot.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
