How our Mexican catering works in Moortown
We bring our truck or trailer to events in and around Moortown: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, as long as there is safe access. At birthday parties and retirement and leaving parties, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos and loaded nachos.
For a rural spot like Moortown, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

How it works
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. A December event in Moortown will be in the dark from about 4:05pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Common questions in Moortown
We’re having a ceremony at St. Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater in villages like Moortown?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we can’t guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Prices and what affects them

- The number of people
