About our Mexican catering in Filching

Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. At leaving parties and school fairs and fundraisers, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and tacos for your guests.

In a rural place like Filching, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

FAQs for Filching

Do you cater at coastal events near Filching?

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.

How far is Filching from London?

Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.

Do you do a taco bar?

Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.

How is the food prepared?

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.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

Can you cater for children?

Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Filching.

Is the food very hot?

It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about vehicles and catering, so check with yours. The coast is within about 4 miles of Filching, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind.

Can I do a taco night myself?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

About the menu

Tacos

Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms are agreed with you.

Salsas and guacamole

Salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your event, with lime and fresh toppings.

How it compares

Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
