Alvescot questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
How far is Alvescot from central London?
About 67 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Is Mexican food OK for kids?
Yes. Quesadillas and simple tacos go down well with children, and salsas go on the side. Tell us how many children are coming.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do we need to provide plates?
Ask us when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Mexican party catering in Alvescot, served fresh
Mexican party catering means no cooking for you and no formal dinner either. We park our truck or trailer and serve hot food while your guests chat. For exam-results parties and leaving dos and retirements, we can serve tacos, loaded nachos and burritos.
A country party near Alvescot is a good fit for street food: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Popular choices

Nachos are a party favourite.
Salsas and guacamole
Guacamole and a choice of salsas, made fresh for your party.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Planners, venues and businesses
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re 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.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. A summer party in Alvescot stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
