Mexican catering in Idbury
How our Mexican catering works in Idbury
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. At summer garden parties and school fairs and fundraisers, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
Somewhere like Idbury, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

What else we do in Idbury
Planners, venues and businesses
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. A December event in Idbury will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:30pm.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
