How our Mexican catering works in Green Cross
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: we park our truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. You do not need a kitchen at the venue. On the menu are quesadillas, loaded nachos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits charity and school events and festivals, fairs and markets.
Somewhere like Green Cross, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
How the day works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. Winter evenings in Green Cross close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How many guests we are serving
- Parking and the route in
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- A picture of where we’d park
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and time of the event
- Expected numbers
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Your questions about Mexican catering in Green Cross
Do you come out to small places like Green Cross?
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.
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Can you serve drinks as well?
We can. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you cover Green Cross?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Green Cross. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
How many guests can you cater for?
It depends on the event. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Occasions we cater for in Green Cross
The truck or trailer becomes a focal point, and people drift over as soon as service starts.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
