About our Mexican catering in Elvetham
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. It works well for leaving parties and anniversaries and engagements, with burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos.
Somewhere as small as Elvetham, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
What affects the price in Elvetham
We’ll give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- How many guests we’re serving
- Whether you need disposables

- Distance and access to the venue
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. From late May to late September, sunset in Elvetham moves from about 8:55pm to 7:05pm. Let us know if service will run after dark, and we will talk about lighting.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- We serve hot food from our food truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- We pack away when service is over.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Taco catering in Elvetham: local tips
Elvetham is about 2 miles north-west of Fleet, in Hampshire. Whether your event is in the middle of Elvetham or on the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Elvetham is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Elvetham to Reading (11 miles away).
By rail: Fleet station is about 1.8 miles away. For a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Mary at Elvetham Hall, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
We cater events across the RG27 postcode area and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Home Farm Road and Fleet Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

Organising for someone else?

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
How it compares
Pizza and burger vans are familiar choices. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, yet it’s still food most guests know and like. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

Elvetham: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Elvetham?
Guests can use Fleet station, about 1.8 miles east of Elvetham.
Is it possible to have you in The Views Meadow?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
