About our Mexican catering in Henley Street
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar. At garden parties and milestone birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos and more.
For a rural spot like Henley Street, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Count children separately
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
When service ends, we pack down and clear our area, leaving the space as we found it.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
What we need at the venue
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Henley Street: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Henley Street?
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.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul?
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’ll check the access.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
What if it rains?
We can still serve in the rain. Have somewhere covered ready for guests.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we can’t promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
The process
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. A December event in Henley Street will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Let us know the timings for the day
