How our Mexican catering works in Netley Marsh
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. It suits company summer parties and leaving dos and retirement parties, serving loaded nachos, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar.
For a rural spot like Netley Marsh, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on

Your questions about Mexican catering in Netley Marsh
Do you cater in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Matthew?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We arrive with our own mobile kitchen. We set up at your venue, serve hot food to order and pack down afterwards.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you cater for big events?
That depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will plan around them.
For event organisers in Netley Marsh
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch, and guests are welcome to ask before ordering.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.
How we price Mexican catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your menu ideas
- The address or venue name
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Any dietary needs and allergies
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Mexican catering or something else?
Pizza and burger vans are familiar choices. Mexican street food stands out, while still being easy food most people enjoy. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- Service planned around your numbers
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
- Allergen-aware menus

Planning a food truck in Netley Marsh
Netley Marsh is about 1 mile west of Totton, in Hampshire. From the centre of Netley Marsh to the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Netley Marsh is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we can bring Mexican catering. We cater right across the region, from Netley Marsh to Southampton (about 6 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Matthew, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Netley Marsh Church of England Infant School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking. With the New Forest National Park about 4 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Netley Marsh. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in. The coast is within about 6 miles of Netley Marsh, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots normally need permission from the council or landowner.
