Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains

- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.

Mexican catering in St Michaels, served fresh
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across St Michaels and nearby: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields. It suits family gatherings and christenings and big birthday celebrations, with a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and loaded nachos.
In a rural place like St Michaels, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Mexican catering or something else?
Platters dropped off in the morning are easy but forgettable. Hot food served from a truck feels like part of the event. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What you get with us
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A clear quote
- Service planned around your numbers
- Allergen information for every dish
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not normally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Evenings in St Michaels stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Tell us what power and water the site has

What Mexican catering costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Food, drinks or both
- What’s on the menu
- How long we are needed on site
- Travel, parking and access
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
