Mexican catering in Hursley, served fresh
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. At leaving parties and school fairs and fundraisers, we can serve burritos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole and more.
Somewhere as small as Hursley, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Step by step
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Winter evenings in Hursley close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We confirm the way in and where we will park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.
Your questions about Mexican catering in Hursley
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of All Saints?
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 will check the access.
What’s the nearest station to Hursley for guests?
Guests can use Shawford station, about 2.7 miles east of Hursley.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Do you come to Hursley?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Hursley is within our area. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
