Mexican catering near Waltham Chase
Mexican catering in Waltham Chase, from our truck or trailer
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our food truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. It suits school fairs and fundraisers and garden get-togethers, with quesadillas, burrito bowls and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Somewhere as small as Waltham Chase, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Common questions in Waltham Chase
Will you travel to a small place like Waltham Chase?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Waltham Chase Methodist Church?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
What’s on the menu?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. Our sample menu has more detail.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you serve drinks as well?
We can. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
What happens on the day
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. Around midsummer it stays light in Waltham Chase until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.

Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Salsas and guacamole
Every taco needs salsa and guacamole, and guests add as much as they like.
Quesadillas
Tortillas filled with melted cheese and a filling, toasted until crisp, cut into wedges.

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Your choice of food and drinks

Why choose Mexican catering in Waltham Chase?
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
