Mexican catering in Southbourne, served fresh
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar, and it’s a good fit for birthday parties and summer garden parties.
For a place the size of Southbourne, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Let us know about the route to the house. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Common questions in Southbourne
What’s the nearest station to Southbourne for guests?
Guests can use Southbourne station, which is right in Southbourne.
How far is Southbourne from London?
Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
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.
Comparing your options
A cold buffet is simple but tends to sit out for hours. Tacos and burritos are made to order and served hot. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re 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.
Throwing 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.
