About our Mexican catering in Salters Heath
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our food truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. You don’t need a kitchen at the venue. It works well for office lunches and team days and markets and community events, with loaded nachos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a rural place like Salters Heath, 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 cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Give us separate numbers for children
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
Your questions about Mexican catering in Salters Heath
What’s the nearest station to Salters Heath for guests?
Bramley (Hants) station, about 2.7 miles east of the centre.
We are having a ceremony at Pamber Priory: can you cater afterwards?
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 take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you set up at our venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we’ll confirm what we need. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
What are your prices?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
How it works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. A December event in Salters Heath will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.

How to prepare

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
