Mexican catering for Kitwood events
How we price Mexican catering
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- What’s on the menu
- Food, drinks or both
- Whether you need disposables
- How many guests we are serving
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Your date and when you want service to start
Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will make suggestions. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.
How our Mexican catering works in Kitwood
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our food truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. We serve burritos, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos, which works well for office lunches and team days and leaving dos and retirement parties.
For a rural spot like Kitwood, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
How the day works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. In Kitwood, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- 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.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Common questions in Kitwood
How far is Kitwood from London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What do you need at the venue?
We need level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
Our food truck or trailer is a mobile kitchen. We set up, serve your guests and clear away when service ends.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Space, access and the venue
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Kitwood: venues, access and local tips
Kitwood is about 5 miles south-west of Alton, in Hampshire. From the centre of Kitwood to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. We cover 683 places in Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 19 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Church of the Good Shepherd, the food generally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. A school such as Four Marks Church of England Primary School running a summer fair or fundraiser could book a taco truck. The South Downs National Park is within about 8 miles of Kitwood, with country venues and gardens that can suit a food truck. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about vehicles and catering, so check with yours.
