Mexican catering for your event in Dockenfield
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. It works well for engagement celebrations and summer garden parties, with loaded nachos, tacos and burrito bowls.
In a rural place like Dockenfield, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Winter evenings in Dockenfield close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We confirm the way in and where we will park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.

Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance

- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so everything goes out hot.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.
Dockenfield questions
We’re having a ceremony at The Church Of The Good Shepherd: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Which station is closest to Dockenfield?
Bentley (Hampshire) station, about 2.4 miles north-west of the centre.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Can you set up at our venue?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Can you serve drinks as well?
Yes. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. We’ll check the licensing with you.

Comparing your options
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
