Mexican catering near New Alresford
Mexican catering for your event in New Alresford
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too. On the menu are tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for leaving parties and engagement and anniversary parties.
In and around New Alresford, gardens and local halls are common choices. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
What Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many staff you need
- Travel, parking and access
- Guest numbers
- Whether you need disposables
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- The address or venue name
- What power and water the site has
- Roughly how many adults and children
- How we drive in and where we can park
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, fill in our quote form.

New Alresford: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St John the Baptist: 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.
How far is New Alresford from central London?
Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London.
What can we choose from?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. See our sample menu.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
Every event is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

Mexican catering or something else?
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
What you get with us
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Allergen information for every dish
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both

Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter.
