About our Mexican catering in Ipsden
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. Popular choices include burritos, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar, and it is a good fit for charity and school events and garden parties.
In a rural place like Ipsden, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Popular choices
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, finished with salsas and toppings. Fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms are agreed with you.
Quesadillas
A quesadilla is an easy favourite, and they go down well with children.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Serving staff
- How many guests we are serving
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Parking and the route in
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- What power and water the site has
- The date and time of the event
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
FAQs for Ipsden
How far is Ipsden from central London?
It’s about 43 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What’s the nearest station to Ipsden for guests?
Guests can use Cholsey station, about 3.3 miles west of Ipsden.
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.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Why choose Mexican catering in Ipsden?
Cold buffets are easy, but the food sits out. Our food is served hot, one order at a time. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Count children separately
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
For event organisers in Ipsden

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
