A drop-off platter is easy, but nobody remembers it. Live service from a truck or trailer gives guests hot food and something to talk about. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Why us?

  • Menus chosen with you
  • A plan agreed before the day
  • Quick, friendly service from the hatch
  • Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests

Mexican catering in Ifield, from our truck or trailer

We plan each menu with the client, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. It suits anniversaries and engagements and office lunches and team days, with quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos.

There may be a hall or club near Ifield if your garden is small; any can work, given permission and level ground to park on. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Planning for every diet

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Flag anyone with coeliac disease
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations

We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.

Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.

Choosing a Mexican caterer

What Mexican catering costs

Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How many guests we are serving
  • Timings and hours
  • Parking and the route in
  • The menu you choose

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

What to tell us

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • The date and rough timings
  • A picture of where we’d park
  • The address or venue name
  • Your menu ideas

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

Planning the serving area

We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:

  • Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
  • Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
  • A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
