Mexican catering for Sandway events
FAQs for Sandway
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's Church?
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.
Is it possible to have you in Kiln Wood?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
How much does Mexican catering cost in Sandway?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
Mexican catering for your event in Sandway
Mexican street food makes mixed diets simple. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. For retirement and leaving parties and big birthday celebrations, we will put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos and more.
In a small place like Sandway, events are typically in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Before you choose a spot
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

What else we do in Sandway
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Planning an evening event in Sandway? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:15pm at midsummer and 7:00pm in late September. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.

How it compares
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. Our food truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. 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. We quote for each event individually.
