Mexican catering in Lord's Wood, served fresh
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. We serve burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos, and it suits festivals, fairs and markets and big birthday celebrations.
In a small place like Lord's Wood, events are normally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
What affects the price in Lord's Wood
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- The length of service
- Whether you need disposables
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Roughly how many adults and children
- How we drive in and where we can park
The quickest way to a quote is to drop us a line using the enquiry form. Tell us about your event in Lord's Wood, and we will put together a menu and price.
Step by step
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Winter evenings in Lord's Wood close in by about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Tell us when you want service to start

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if it is a good fit.
Catering for every guest
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
Common questions in Lord's Wood
What’s the nearest station to Lord's Wood for guests?
Eastleigh station, about 1.6 miles south-west of the centre.
Will you travel to a small place like Lord's Wood?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What are your prices?
We quote for each event, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. For a price, fill in our quote form.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How does your Mexican catering work?
Our truck or trailer is a mobile kitchen. We set up at your venue, serve hot food to order and pack down afterwards.
What space do you need?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we will check it works. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
Can we add a bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we’ll check that with you.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
