Mexican catering in Firgo, from our truck or trailer
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so nobody ends up with something they do not want. Popular choices include loaded nachos, tacos and quesadillas, and it suits weddings and evening receptions and engagement celebrations.
In a rural place like Firgo, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Planning a food truck in Firgo
Firgo is about 6 miles east of Andover, in Hampshire. We bring Mexican catering to homes, gardens and venues in Firgo and nearby villages. Firgo is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Firgo to Southampton (20 miles away).
By rail: Whitchurch (Hampshire) station is about 2.4 miles away. Parents planning a fundraiser at a school like Testbourne Community School might find a Mexican street-food truck draws families in.

FAQs for Firgo
Do you cater in villages like Firgo?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
What’s the nearest station to Firgo for guests?
Guests can use Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, about 2.4 miles north of Firgo.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
How does your Mexican catering work?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, cook to order and serve tacos, burritos and more from the hatch. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
How it compares
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Occasions we cater for in Firgo
You do not need a kitchen, so it works in gardens, fields and grounds without catering facilities.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Markets and community events
- Retirement and leaving parties
- Staff parties and office lunches
- Engagement celebrations
If you are celebrating after a service at a church like Church of St Mary, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether VAT is included
- How bad weather is handled
- The caterer’s food hygiene rating
- A clear list of what’s included
How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Firgo, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- We serve hot food from our truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- We pack away when service is over.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Parking and the route in
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Staff for serving and the bar
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and rough timings
- A picture of where we’d park
- The address or venue name
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
