Mexican catering for your event in Headley Down
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. For big birthday celebrations and garden parties, we will put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and burrito bowls.
For a place the size of Headley Down, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue hire, and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
For event organisers in Headley Down
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so it is hot when it reaches them.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
