Mexican catering in Jacob's Post, from our food truck or trailer
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. It works well for school fairs and fundraisers and weddings and evening receptions, serving quesadillas, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a hamlet or village like Jacob's Post, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
Allergen information is on hand for every dish, so guests can check before they order.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.

How it compares
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. In Jacob's Post, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Before we arrive
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
