Mexican catering near Golden Pot
How our Mexican catering works in Golden Pot
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food, which suits informal events. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, which works well for garden get-togethers and leaving dos and retirement parties.
In a hamlet or village like Golden Pot, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Burgers and pizza are what guests often expect. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, while still being easy food most people enjoy. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What you get with us
- A menu built around your guests
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- A clear quote
- Service planned around your numbers

Golden Pot: your questions answered
Will you travel to a small place like Golden Pot?
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.
How far is Golden Pot from London?
It is about 44 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
What space do you need?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we’ll check it works. We also need room for a queue.
Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of people
- Travel, parking and access
- What the venue already provides
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- What you’d like on the menu
- Where the event is
Send us the date, your venue or GU34 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. To get started, tell us about it on our contact page.
For event organisers in Golden Pot
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
How it works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. A December event in Golden Pot will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and how many.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
Before we arrive
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
