About our Mexican catering in Somerton
We plan each menu with the client, 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 fairs and festivals and birthday parties, serving tacos, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a hamlet or village like Somerton, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. You will know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Somerton: your questions answered
How far is Somerton from London?
About 60 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St James?
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.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
Every event is quoted for individually, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. For a price, fill in our quote form.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Perfect for your event in Somerton
There’s no kitchen needed at the venue, so it works in gardens, fields and grounds without catering facilities.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:
- Summer garden parties
- Fundraisers and school events
- Birthday parties
- Wedding breakfasts and evening food
When the service is at a church such as Church of St James, the food normally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.
What to look for in a quote
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- The deposit and payment dates
- If the price includes VAT
- Plates and napkins, or nothing at all
What’s on the menu
Burritos and burrito bowls
A big flour tortilla wrapped round rice, beans, a filling and toppings, or served as a bowl instead.
Quesadillas
Tortillas filled with melted cheese and a filling, toasted until crisp.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
What Mexican catering costs
