About our Mexican catering in Popley
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. For fundraisers and school events and garden get-togethers, we can serve loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and quesadillas and more.
Around Popley, events are often in gardens, fields, local halls or nearby venues. If access is tight or the ground is soft, we’ll plan around it. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Popley: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Popley?
Guests can use Basingstoke station, about 1.1 miles south of Popley.
Is it possible to have you in Eastrop Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned in advance, with options kept separate, but we can’t promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.

- A picture of where we’d park
- The date and time of the event
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.
