What Mexican catering costs
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- What the venue already provides
- Timings and hours
- Travel, parking and access
- The number of people
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The date and rough timings
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send a quick message through our quote form.
Mexican catering in Lower Higham, served fresh
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. You don’t need a kitchen at the venue. At birthday parties and engagement and anniversary parties, we can serve burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos for your guests.
In a rural place like Lower Higham, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
Space, access and the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Space for guests to queue
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

What’s the nearest station to Lower Higham for guests?
Higham station, in Lower Higham itself.
How far is Lower Higham from central London?
About 25 miles from central London.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
How many guests can you cater for?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Bigger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Planners, venues and businesses
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
How it works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. In Lower Higham, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Preparing for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Find out what power and water are available
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
