How our Mexican catering works in Drayton
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. At family celebrations and wedding breakfasts and evening food, we can serve fresh salsas and guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Drayton, a garden or field is often the venue. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Mexican catering or something else?
Platters dropped off in the morning are easy but forgettable. Hot food served from a truck feels like part of the event. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
Why us?
- We cover Drayton and the whole of Oxfordshire
- Allergen information for every dish
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. A December event in Drayton will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:30pm.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Questions from Drayton
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is it possible to have you in People's Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Can you serve drinks as well?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we’ll check that with you.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How many guests can you cater for?
It depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
