How our Mexican catering works in Sandford-on-Thames
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and burritos, and it suits school fairs and fundraisers and festivals, fairs and markets.
In a small place like Sandford-on-Thames, events are typically in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Organising for someone else?
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Space, access and the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
