FAQs for Newtown

Will you travel to a small place like Newtown?

Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.

Could you come to a seaside event near Newtown?

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

Can you cater for children?

Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

Can you plan for allergies?

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). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

Can you cater for special diets?

We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we can’t guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.

How is the food prepared?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

Can you serve in bad weather?

We can still serve in the rain. Plan a marquee, gazebo or indoor space for guests to eat in.

About our Mexican catering in Newtown

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. Popular choices include burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and tacos, and it is a good fit for weddings, day or evening and fundraisers and school events.

Somewhere as small as Newtown, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Occasions we cater for in Newtown

The food is bright and generous that suits a relaxed event.

Whatever the occasion, the serving truck can be a highlight. We are happy to cater:

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

For somewhere as remote as Newtown, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
