How our Mexican catering works in Knapp
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. It works well for summer garden parties and family celebrations, serving tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and quesadillas.
Somewhere like Knapp, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
What’s on the menu
Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. They come with fresh salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Burritos and burrito bowls
A burrito is a meal in one. Bowls suit guests who want to skip the tortilla.
How it works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. Around midsummer it stays light in Knapp until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Find out what power and water are available

Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
On the day, we arrive in good time to park up and get ready. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we’ll set out what we can do in your quote.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Questions from Knapp
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mark?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Which station is closest to Knapp?
Guests can use Chandlers Ford station, about 2.5 miles south-east of Knapp.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Knapp.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
