Mexican catering for Five Oaks events

About our Mexican catering in Five Oaks

Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. It works well for birthday parties and school fairs and fundraisers, serving loaded nachos, burritos and a build-your-own taco bar.

Somewhere like Five Oaks, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You will know what’s included before booking: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To make it work smoothly:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
  • Count children separately
  • Send allergy details to us in writing
  • Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one

Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.

Quesadillas go down well with children.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Five Oaks

Will you travel to a small place like Five Oaks?

Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.

How far is Five Oaks from central London?

Roughly 35 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.

Do you have options for kids?

Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.

What do you serve?

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.

What access do you need?

Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.

What’s on the menu

Loaded nachos

Nachos are easy sharing food. Dairy-free versions can be planned.

Tacos

Street tacos are small, quick and full of flavour. We serve them with salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.

What happens on the day

A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Winter evenings in Five Oaks close in by about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.

  1. Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
  2. We plan a menu that covers every diet.
  3. We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
  4. Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
  5. After the last serving, we clear our area.

Before we arrive

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
