Mexican catering in Trash Green, served fresh
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. You do not need a kitchen at the venue. At leaving dos and retirement parties and fundraisers and school events, we can serve loaded nachos, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar for your guests.
In a small place like Trash Green, events are generally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Prices and what affects them
We’ll give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
- Serving staff
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Your menu ideas
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, fill in our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Trash Green: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Trash Green for guests?
Guests can use Theale station, about 1.4 miles north-west of Trash Green.
Is Trash Green close to London?
About 42 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you set up at our venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we will check it works. We also need room for a queue.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can you cater for special diets?
We can. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, cook to order and serve tacos, burritos and more from the hatch. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A cold buffet is simple but tends to sit out for hours. Our food is served hot, one order at a time. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What you get with us
- Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- Quoted for your event
- Allergen-aware menus
- A plan agreed before the day
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Count children separately
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can check before they order.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
