Mexican catering in Oakshott, from our truck or trailer
Planning taco catering for an event in Oakshott? Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats. It suits engagement and anniversary parties and leaving dos and retirement parties, with loaded nachos, tacos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Somewhere as small as Oakshott, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Diets, allergies and planning
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Count children separately
Allergen information is on hand for every dish, and guests are welcome to ask before ordering.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.

What’s on the menu
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are simple and comforting, and they go down well with children.
Build-your-own taco bar
A taco bar is relaxed and sociable, and guests with different diets can choose what suits them.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Burgers and pizza are what guests often expect. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, yet it’s still food most guests know and like. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
