Common questions in Owslebury
Do you cater in villages like Owslebury?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How far is Owslebury from central London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you come to Owslebury?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Owslebury. For a quote, use our quote form.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
What are your prices?
We quote for each event, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
What can we choose from?
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as chicken tinga, carnitas or black beans. Take a look at the sample menu.
About our Mexican catering in Owslebury

DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Working with your venue
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Owslebury? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
