Mexican catering for Yopps Green events
Mexican catering for your event in Yopps Green
Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. It suits retirement and leaving parties and summer garden parties, serving quesadillas, tacos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a hamlet or village like Yopps Green, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Where the truck can go in Yopps Green
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first

Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
How it works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. In Yopps Green, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we will park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Name one person we can ask on the day
