Mexican party catering in Apse Heath, from our truck or trailer
A Mexican party takes the food off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. Our food truck or trailer parks up and we serve hot food as the party goes on. It works well for garden get-togethers and graduation and exam-results parties, serving a build-your-own taco bar, guacamole and salsas and quesadillas.
Country parties near Apse Heath suit a food truck or trailer: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

If you’re hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on outside caterers and vehicles first.

What we need at the venue

- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
For somewhere as remote as Apse Heath, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.

Apse Heath: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Apse Heath?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Apse Heath for guests?
The closest is Shanklin station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
When do you arrive?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
