How the day works
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, planned around your event. In New Pound, 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. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and how many.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- We serve hot food from our food truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- We pack away when service is over.
How to prepare
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Ask the venue about power and water

About our Mexican catering in New Pound
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. It works well for weddings, day or evening and milestone birthdays, serving loaded nachos, burritos and burrito bowls.
In a hamlet or village like New Pound, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start.

Common questions in New Pound
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Lawrence's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you come out to small places like New Pound?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
What are your prices?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we will send a quote for your event.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
How does your Mexican catering work?
We park our truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Space for guests to queue
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
