How our Mexican catering works in Forest Green
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. It works well for leaving parties and festivals, fairs and markets, with quesadillas, burrito bowls and loaded nachos.
Somewhere like Forest Green, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Who books Mexican catering in Forest Green?
Mixed diets are easy to plan for, since everyone picks their own fillings and toppings. Vegetarian and vegan guests get a proper meal, not an afterthought.
Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. In Forest Green, you could book us for occasions like:
- Retirement and leaving parties
- Milestone birthdays
- School fairs and fundraisers
- Company summer parties
If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Hurtwood House, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser.

- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
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.
How we price Mexican catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Parking and the route in
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How many staff you need
- Timings and hours
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Your menu ideas
- The venue or postcode
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Organising for someone else?
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.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
