Mexican catering for East Peckham events
How our Mexican catering works in East Peckham
Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. On the menu are burritos, tacos and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it’s a good fit for leaving dos and retirement parties and festivals, fairs and markets.
In a hamlet or village like East Peckham, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
About the menu
Build-your-own taco bar
Fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out for guests to help themselves, with warm tortillas to fill. Each guest makes tacos their way.
Loaded nachos
Crisp tortilla chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole.
Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Space for guests to queue
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

How we price Mexican catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- The number of people
- Distance and access to the venue
- The menu you choose
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
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Your menu ideas
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The address or venue name
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just use our quote form.
Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Include at least one vegan filling
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. Winter evenings in East Peckham close in by about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.

East Peckham questions
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station is closest to East Peckham?
Beltring station, about 1 mile south-east of the centre.
How much does Mexican catering cost in East Peckham?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a quote.
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 serve drinks as well?
Yes. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
How many guests can you cater for?
It depends on the event. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we will take it from there.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
