How our Mexican party catering works in Acol
A Mexican party takes the food off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We park our truck or trailer and serve hot food while your guests chat. For housewarming parties and exam-results parties, we will put together a menu of burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos and more.
A country party near Acol is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Acol: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Mildreds 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.
Do you cater at coastal events near Acol?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
We can. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:

- Put severe allergies to us in writing
- Measure your gate or driveway

We have allergen details for every dish, so guests can check before ordering.
