Mexican catering for Orchard Leigh events
How our Mexican catering works in Orchard Leigh
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. At garden get-togethers and office lunches and team days, we’ll put together a menu of burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos and more.
In a rural place like Orchard Leigh, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Put any allergies in writing for us
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so it’s hot when it reaches them.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we’ll set out what we can do in your quote.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

Orchard Leigh questions
Do you come to events in the Chilterns National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How far is Orchard Leigh from central London?
It’s about 26 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
