Mexican catering near Little Holbury
DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
How our Mexican catering works in Little Holbury
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so nobody ends up with something they do not want. Popular choices include tacos, quesadillas and burrito bowls, which works well for staff parties and office lunches and markets and community events.
In a rural place like Little Holbury, 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. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away, leaving the space as we found it.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Little Holbury
Will you travel to a small place like Little Holbury?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Do you come to events in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can we add a bar?
Yes. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We’ll talk licensing through with you.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
