Mexican catering in Noke Common
How our Mexican catering works in Noke Common
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so nobody ends up with something they don’t want. It suits markets and community events and school fairs and fundraisers, serving quesadillas, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a small place like Noke Common, 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. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Noke Common: your questions answered
Do you cater at coastal events near Noke Common?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St. John the Baptist?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
What are your prices?
There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we’ll send a quote for your event.
How much does Mexican catering cost in Noke Common?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

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.

Planning for every diet
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
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.
