How our Mexican catering works in Dora's Green
Mexican street food makes mixed diets simple. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. At christenings and family parties and leaving dos and retirement parties, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and loaded nachos for your guests.
Somewhere like Dora's Green, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Diets, allergies and planning
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Count children separately
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter.
Popular choices

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Comparing your options
A barbecue often means a host tied to the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our food truck or trailer. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
