How our Mexican catering works in Southrope
The menu starts with tacos: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. At big birthday celebrations and leaving dos and retirement parties, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and burrito bowls for your guests.
For a rural spot like Southrope, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To get it right:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so everything goes out hot.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. In Southrope, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Name one person we can ask on the day
