Mexican catering near Eythorne
The menu, item by item
Tacos
Soft tortillas, warmed and filled, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms are agreed with you.
Loaded nachos
Loaded nachos are perfect for sharing, whether as a starter or a late bite. We can plan a dairy-free version.
Mexican catering in Eythorne, from our truck or trailer
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. You do not need a kitchen at the venue. It suits weddings, day or evening and company summer parties, with fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
Somewhere as small as Eythorne, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

What else we do in Eythorne
DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
For planners, venues and organisers
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Evenings in Eythorne stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.
