Mexican catering for your event in Underriver
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food. We serve burritos, loaded nachos and tacos, and it suits charity and school events and garden parties.
In a small place like Underriver, events are normally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Underriver
How far is Underriver from central London?
Roughly 22 miles from the centre of London.
Will you travel to a small place like Underriver?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
What can we choose from?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. Our sample menu has more detail.
Can you keep it mild?
It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
How it works
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. A December event in Underriver will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.

What else we do in Underriver
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
What we offer in Underriver
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- A menu built around your guests
- A clear quote
- Allergen information for everything we serve

Why choose Mexican catering in Underriver?
There is no kitchen needed at the venue, so gardens, fields and outdoor venues are all possible.
We cater all kinds of occasions in Underriver and nearby. Some of the most common are:
- Fairs and festivals
- Charity and school events
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- Summer garden parties
Close to Underriver are historic houses such as Knole House (1.6 miles north-west) and Ightham Mote (1.9 miles north-east). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before you book one.
What your quote should include
- Payment terms and deposit

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
