A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so nobody ends up with something they do not want.

Smannell: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Smannell?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
We are having a ceremony at Christ Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not 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.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We quote for each event, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Can we add a bar?
Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will check the licensing with you before the day.

We park our truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.

The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered.
