Mexican catering near Scarborough
Mexican catering in Scarborough, served fresh
A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so nobody ends up with something they do not want. At weddings, day or evening and office lunches and team days, we will put together a menu of tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos and more.
For a rural spot like Scarborough, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Why choose Mexican catering in Scarborough?
Tacos and burritos go down well with most crowds: it is familiar, filling and easy to eat standing up or sitting down.
We cater all kinds of occasions in Scarborough and nearby. Popular bookings include:
- Festivals, fairs and markets
- Retirement and leaving parties

Parks such as Holborough Marshes generally need the owner’s permission for vehicles and catering, so ask before you plan an event there.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.

Scarborough: your questions answered
Is Scarborough close to London?
Roughly 27 miles from the centre of London.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you serve in the rain?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, though guests need a covered place to eat.
Working with your venue
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
