Mexican catering in Elmfield, served fresh
We bring our food truck or trailer to events in and around Elmfield: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, wherever we can get in safely. On the menu are loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos, and it suits markets and community events and engagement celebrations.
For a place the size of Elmfield, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

- Distance and access to the venue
- What the venue already provides
- What’s on the menu

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Out-of-the-way places like Elmfield take a little more planning, so let us know about tracks, gates and power in good time.

Elmfield questions
We’re having a ceremony at St John's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Which station should guests use for Elmfield?
Guests can use Ryde St Johns Road station, which is right in Elmfield.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How much will it cost?
We quote for each event, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
How many guests can 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.
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Around midsummer it stays light in Elmfield until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
