How our Mexican catering works in Stubb's Cross
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats. It suits engagement celebrations and family gatherings and christenings, serving loaded nachos, burrito bowls and burritos.
Somewhere as small as Stubb's Cross, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
A closer look at the menu
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, finished with salsas and toppings. Fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms are agreed with you.
Salsas and guacamole
Guacamole and salsas, freshly made.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Planning the serving area
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking

Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

What guest numbers do you cater for?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Do you have gluten-free options?
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?
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
What are your prices?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
