About our Mexican catering in Westwell Leacon
Our truck or trailer travels to events across Westwell Leacon and nearby: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, wherever we can get in safely. It suits engagement and anniversary parties and fundraisers and school events, with loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls.
Somewhere as small as Westwell Leacon, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in Westwell Leacon until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- When you are done, we pack away.
How to prepare
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Common questions in Westwell Leacon
Which station is closest to Westwell Leacon?
Guests can use Charing station, about 1.2 miles north-west of Westwell Leacon.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Charing 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.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we can’t guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
What are your prices?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
Should I do it myself?
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.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
