How our Mexican party catering works in Alderholt
Birthdays, garden parties and family celebrations all suit Mexican street food. The truck or trailer is a focal point, and every plate goes out hot. At naming days and christenings and graduation celebrations, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, burritos and loaded nachos for your guests.
For a party in Alderholt, your garden is often the best venue. Let us know how the truck or trailer can reach the garden, and we will plan the rest. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
The process
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. Sunset in Alderholt ranges from about 9:25pm at midsummer to about 4:05pm in December, so the time of year shapes an evening party.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Alderholt: your questions answered
We are having a ceremony at Church of St James: can you cater afterwards?
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 will check the access.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Is my garden suitable?
It depends on the access and the ground. Let us know about gates, slopes and soft grass, and we’ll check it works.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
How early should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Ensure there’s a vegan option
- Give separate numbers for children
- Collect dietary needs with your invites
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
Allergen information is available for every dish, so guests can check before ordering.

For event organisers in Alderholt
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Before you choose a spot
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Send a photo of the spot so we can check
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Can I do a taco night myself?
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
