Mexican catering in Newtown, from our truck or trailer
We plan each menu with the client, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It suits big birthday celebrations and family celebrations, with a build-your-own taco bar, burritos and burrito bowls.
In and around Newtown, gardens and local halls are common choices. If access is tight or the ground is soft, we will plan around it. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
How it compares
A drop-off platter is easy, but nobody remembers it. Live service from a truck or trailer gives guests hot food and something to talk about. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Newtown: your questions answered
Could you serve in Eldon Square?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Which station is closest to Newtown?
Guests can use Reading station, about 1.1 miles west of Newtown.
What are your prices?
We don’t publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you will get a quote for your event.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
The process
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. Winter evenings in Newtown close in by about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Give us your final numbers and diets
Ask for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, send a quick message through our quote form.

Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Count children separately
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
