How our Mexican catering works in Lower Assendon
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 loaded nachos, burritos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it is a good fit for leaving parties and milestone birthdays.
In a hamlet or village like Lower Assendon, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

How it compares
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Why us?
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A clear quote

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. We serve them with salsas and toppings.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
