Mexican catering in Redbridge, from our food truck or trailer
Planning taco catering for an event in Redbridge? A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. Popular choices include tacos, loaded nachos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits garden parties and school fairs and fundraisers.
In a rural place like Redbridge, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- What’s on the menu
- Whether you need disposables
- Guest numbers
- Food, drinks or both
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What power and water the site has
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The date and rough timings
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
Comparing your options
Cold buffets are easy, but the food sits out. Our food is served hot, one order at a time. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What you get with us
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A menu agreed with you
- Catering across Southampton, including Redbridge
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Put any allergies in writing for us
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will set out what we can do in your quote.
Common questions in Redbridge
Will you travel to a small place like Redbridge?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could you serve our guests after a service at All Saints?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
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. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
What food do you serve?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. See our sample menu.
The process
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. Around midsummer it stays light in Redbridge until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and how many.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
Getting a price
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send a quick message through our quote form.

Catering an event in Redbridge

Close to Redbridge are historic houses such as Southampton Tudor House and Garden (3.3 miles south-east) and Medieval Merchant's House (3.3 miles south-east). Estates and historic houses tend to set their own rules for caterers, so find out what yours allows first. Guests leaving a church like All Saints after a christening could walk over to a nearby garden where the tacos are ready. The New Forest National Park is within about 6 miles of Redbridge, with country venues and gardens that can suit a food truck. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about vehicles and catering, so check with yours. With the sea within about 4 miles, a beach-side event might appeal. Promenades and beaches usually need permission, and the truck or trailer has to park on firm ground, not sand.

What else we do in Redbridge
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Why choose Mexican catering in Redbridge?
You don’t need a kitchen, so it works in gardens, fields and grounds without catering facilities.
