How our Mexican catering works in Upminster
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. You do not need a kitchen at the venue. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas, and it suits big birthday celebrations and garden parties.
In Upminster, a courtyard, a venue forecourt or a garden with drive access can work well. If the garden is only reached through the house, a spot on the drive or the street may work, with permission. Tell us about the route in. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Should I do it 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’ll do the serving.
