Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Distance and access to the venue
- The menu you choose
- The number of people
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The address or venue name
- A picture of where we’d park
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

Other catering in Harwell
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
