Mexican catering for Upper Brailes events
What we need at the venue
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Mexican catering in Upper Brailes, from our food truck or trailer
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. On the menu are quesadillas, tacos and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it is a good fit for festivals, fairs and markets and milestone birthdays.
In a hamlet or village like Upper Brailes, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Count children separately
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so it is hot when it reaches them.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.

Popular choices
Burritos and burrito bowls
A burrito is a meal in one. The bowl version suits anyone avoiding tortillas.
Build-your-own taco bar
A serving table of fillings, salsas and toppings, with warm tortillas to fill. Each guest makes tacos their way.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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.

Upper Brailes questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St George?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you come out to small places like Upper Brailes?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
