Mexican catering for Newnham events
How our Mexican catering works in Newnham
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. It suits wedding breakfasts and evening food and garden parties, with a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and tacos.
Somewhere like Newnham, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Newnham questions
Which station is closest to Newnham?
The closest is Hook station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St. Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What if it rains?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
What space do you need?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
How does your Mexican catering work?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, cook to order and serve tacos, burritos and more from the hatch. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- Space for guests to queue
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book

Taco catering in Newnham: local tips
Newnham is about 5 miles east of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. We bring Mexican catering to homes, gardens and venues in Newnham and the surrounding area. Newnham is one of 683 places in Hampshire where we can bring Mexican catering. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Newnham to Reading (12 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as Church of St. Nicholas, the food normally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. Historic houses near Newnham include The Vyne (4.6 miles west) and Stratfield Saye House (4.7 miles north). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before you book one.
Wherever your event is in RG27, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Local streets include Tylney Lane, Newnham Lane and Ridge Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. If your venue is just outside Newnham, we also cover Nately Scures (1 mile south), Hook Common (1 mile south-east), Up Nately (1 mile south), Hook (1 mile east) and Warnborough Green (2 miles south-east). Further out, we also cater in Basingstoke (5 miles west), Farnborough (10 miles east), Fleet (7 miles east), Aldershot (10 miles east), Alton (9 miles south) and Yateley (8 miles north-east).

How it compares
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Why book with us
- Events in Newnham and across Hampshire
- A menu agreed with you
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests

Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
What affects the price in Newnham
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Serving staff
- Whether you need disposables
- How long we are needed on site
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.

How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Winter evenings in Newnham close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- When you are done, we pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
