Mexican catering near Fairlight Cove

About our Mexican catering in Fairlight Cove

With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: we park our truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. On the menu are quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos, and it suits anniversaries and engagements and school fairs and fundraisers.

Somewhere as small as Fairlight Cove, a garden or field is often the venue. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

How we price Mexican catering

Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • What’s on the menu
  • Serving staff
  • Timings and hours

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

What we need to know

To check availability and price, we need:

  • A picture of where we’d park
  • The venue or postcode
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children

It is easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send you a clear quote.

Planning for every diet

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:

  • Tell us what other food is being served
  • Send allergy details to us in writing
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
  • Count children separately

We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.

Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we’ll set out what we can do in 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. Read our guide to taco bars.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Fairlight Cove

Will you travel to a small place like Fairlight Cove?

Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

Do you cater at coastal events near Fairlight Cove?

Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.

Do you need electricity?

It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we will park.

Can you cater for special diets?

We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we cannot guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.

Do you do a drinks bar?

Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we will check that with you.

Do you provide drinks?

Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

With a barbecue, someone normally ends up stuck at the grill. Book us and the cooking happens in our truck or trailer. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.

What happens on the day

We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. In Fairlight Cove, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.

  1. You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
  2. We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
  3. We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
  4. We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
  5. After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
