Mexican catering in Horsenden, from our food truck or trailer
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too. At leaving parties and weddings, day or evening, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Horsenden, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Catering an event in Horsenden
Horsenden is about 5 miles east of Thame, in Buckinghamshire. Anywhere in HP27, we can bring the truck or trailer to you, as long as there is access. Horsenden is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Horsenden to Oxford (16 miles away).
A school such as Princes Risborough School running a summer fair or fundraiser could book a taco truck. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like Church of St Michael and All Angels, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal. With the Chilterns National Landscape about 5 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Horsenden. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.

Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

Who books Mexican catering in Horsenden?
A food truck gives guests somewhere to gather, and people drift over as soon as service starts.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Wedding breakfasts and evening food
- Milestone birthdays
- Company summer parties
- Engagement celebrations
By rail: Princes Risborough station is in Horsenden itself.
Questions to ask before you book
- The wet-weather plan
- How each diet is kept separate
- Travel and parking costs
- Plates and napkins, or nothing at all
How the day works
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. In Horsenden, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
How to prepare
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
How to get a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, tell us about it on our contact page.

Horsenden questions
How far is Horsenden from London?
It is about 36 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you come to events in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
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 talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
What space do you need?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we’ll check it works. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
Can you keep it mild?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Space for guests to queue
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
