Mexican catering for your event in Hale
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Hale and nearby: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields, as long as there is safe access. On the menu are tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls, and it suits engagement celebrations and family gatherings and christenings.
In a hamlet or village like Hale, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Permission from the venue or landowner
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Questions from Hale
Will you travel to a small place like Hale?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
Our truck or trailer is a mobile kitchen. We set up at your venue, serve hot food to order and pack down afterwards.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
What food do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria or spiced mushrooms. The sample menu shows the options.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so it is hot when it reaches them.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
What’s on the menu
Burritos and burrito bowls
A burrito is a meal in one. The bowl version suits anyone avoiding tortillas.
Build-your-own taco bar
A serving table of fillings, salsas and toppings, with warm tortillas to fill. Everyone builds their own.
What Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The number of people
- Parking and the route in
- What’s on the menu
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
