Mexican catering for your event in The Holt
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, which works well for fundraisers and school events and milestone birthdays.
Somewhere like The Holt, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
DIY taco night versus 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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What Mexican catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Timings and hours
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many guests we’re serving
- What the venue already provides
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The address or venue name
- A picture of where we’d park
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground

Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Count children separately
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.

Comparing your options
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
