How our Mexican catering works in Newtown
Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. It suits leaving dos and retirement parties and engagement and anniversary parties, with burritos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a small place like Newtown, events are usually in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
How we price Mexican catering
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Serving staff
- Whether you need disposables
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Parking and the route in
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.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- What you’d like on the menu

- Expected numbers
Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will make suggestions. When you’re ready, use our quote form.

- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
Add our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?

Newtown questions
Is Newtown close to London?
Roughly 60 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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 will check the access.
What do you need at the venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we will check it works. We also need room for a queue.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
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 give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give 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.

Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a quote.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
