Mexican catering in Peaslake, from our food truck or trailer
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. Burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas can sit alongside them. It works well for school fairs and fundraisers and retirement and leaving parties, with burritos, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
Somewhere as small as Peaslake, 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
Allergen information is on hand for every dish, and guests are welcome to ask before ordering.
Add our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.

How it works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. In Peaslake, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Common questions in Peaslake
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mark: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Which station is closest to Peaslake?
The closest is Gomshall station, roughly 1.8 miles away.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
