Mexican catering in Silchester, served fresh
Every menu is agreed with you, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It works well for anniversaries and engagements and office lunches and team days, serving tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls.
In a small place like Silchester, events are generally 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 firm ground matters, especially after rain. You’ll know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Common questions in Silchester
Is it possible to have you in Padworth Common Local Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Is Silchester close to London?
It is about 45 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
What do you need at the venue?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we will check it works. We also need room for a queue.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as chicken tinga, carnitas or black beans. Take a look at the sample menu.
Can you serve drinks as well?
We can. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
Do you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, though guests need a covered place to eat.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
