Your questions about Mexican catering in Longfield
What’s the nearest station to Longfield for guests?
Guests can use Longfield station, which is right in Longfield.
How far is Longfield from central London?
Roughly 19 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you do a drinks bar?
We can. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not generally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Mexican catering for your event in Longfield
We plan each menu with the client, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. On the menu are quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls, which works well for big birthday celebrations and family gatherings and christenings.
In a hamlet or village like Longfield, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Around midsummer it stays light in Longfield until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
