Mexican catering in East Lavant, served fresh
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food, which suits informal events. We serve quesadillas, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos, which works well for family gatherings and christenings and weddings, day or evening.
In a small place like East Lavant, events are generally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Catering for every guest
We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To get it right:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter.

Your questions about Mexican catering in East Lavant
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: 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.
Do you cater in villages like East Lavant?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we can’t promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you set up at our venue?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will go through the licensing with you and your venue.
What Mexican catering costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The number of people
- What’s on the menu
- Serving staff
- What the venue already provides
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your menu ideas
- The address or venue name
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, send a quick message through our quote form.
The process
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. Around midsummer it stays light in East Lavant until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our truck or trailer.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
