Mexican catering in South Weirs, served fresh
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. At wedding breakfasts and evening food and office lunches and team days, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and quesadillas for your guests.
In a rural place like South Weirs, 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 turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
South Weirs questions
What’s the nearest station to South Weirs for guests?
The closest is Brockenhurst station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Saviour?
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.
What space do you need?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we will confirm what we need. We also need room for a queue.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
