Mexican catering for Selling events
Mexican catering in Selling, from our food truck or trailer
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Selling and nearby: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields. On the menu are burrito bowls, loaded nachos and tacos, which works well for fundraisers and school events and festivals, fairs and markets.
In a rural place like Selling, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.
Selling: your questions answered
Is Selling close to London?
About 47 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Selling?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we can’t guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.
Can you set up at our venue?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we will check it works. We also need room for a queue.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Can you serve drinks as well?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will go through the licensing with you before the day.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.

Working with your venue
Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t normally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Selling, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- Before the day, we agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests help themselves.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
What’s on the menu
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are simple and comforting.
Salsas and guacamole
The salsas and guacamole finish every plate.
Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
