Mexican catering for your event in Swattenden
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. For weddings, day or evening and staff parties and office lunches, we can serve burrito bowls, tacos and loaded nachos and more.
For a rural spot like Swattenden, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
What affects the price in Swattenden
We quote for your event, which reflects:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Distance and access to the venue
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Timings and hours
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

Swattenden: your questions answered
Will you travel to a small place like Swattenden?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Congregational Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.

What space do you need?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you cater in Swattenden?
Yes, we do. Swattenden is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Swattenden, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.

- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
