How our Mexican catering works in Epsom
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. Burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas can sit alongside them. We serve tacos, burritos and burrito bowls, which works well for weddings and evening receptions and family gatherings and christenings.
Gardens in Epsom range from small patios to big lawns, and the key question is whether the truck or trailer can reach them. If it can’t get to the garden, a drive or a car park nearby may work. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
The process
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. Around midsummer it stays light in Epsom until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- 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.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Is it possible to have you in Epsom Common?

Which station should guests use for Epsom?
Guests can use Epsom station, which is right in Epsom.
What guest numbers do you cater for?

There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.

What is mobile Mexican catering?

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Occasions we cater for in Epsom
It handles mixed diets without fuss, since everyone picks their own fillings and toppings. Vegans and vegetarians eat as well as anyone else.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:
- Weddings and evening receptions
- Garden get-togethers
- Markets and community events
- Engagement celebrations
For a fête or sports day at a school such as Laine Theatre Arts, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if it rains
- Payment terms and deposit
- Whether plates, napkins and cutlery are included
- Travel and parking costs
Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.

- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
