Mexican catering in Selborne, from our truck or trailer
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 big birthday celebrations and family gatherings and christenings, we can serve tacos, burritos and quesadillas and more.
In a rural place like Selborne, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Send allergy details to us in writing
When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.

About the menu
Quesadillas
Tortillas filled with melted cheese and a filling, toasted until crisp, cut into wedges.
Tacos
Street tacos are small, quick and full of flavour. We serve them with salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
What happens on the day
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. In Selborne, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we will park.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Mexican catering or something else?
Burgers and pizza are what guests often expect. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, yet it is still food most guests know and like. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.

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’ll check the access.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you serve in bad weather?
We can still serve in the rain. Plan a marquee, gazebo or indoor space for guests to eat in.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
