How our Mexican catering works in Hartley Mauditt
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. For garden parties and weddings, day or evening, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos for your guests.
For a rural spot like Hartley Mauditt, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Planning help
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests help themselves.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Before you choose a spot
If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
What’s on the menu
Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. We serve them with salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Burritos and burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings rolled in a large tortilla, or the same served in a bowl.
