Mexican catering for Whiteley Bank events
What’s on the menu
Tacos

Salsas and guacamole
Every taco needs salsa and guacamole.
Mexican catering in Whiteley Bank, from our truck or trailer
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. At staff parties and office lunches and school fairs and fundraisers, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and burritos and more.
In a rural place like Whiteley Bank, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

What else we do in Whiteley Bank
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Include at least one vegan filling
On the day, we arrive in good time to park up and get ready. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
Mexican catering or something else?
Pizza and burger vans are familiar choices. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, while still being easy food most people enjoy. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.
