Mexican party catering for Ashford events
Mexican party catering in Ashford, from our food truck or trailer
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with alcohol-free options for drivers and children. We’ll talk licensing through with you. It works well for engagement and anniversary parties and big birthdays, with quesadillas, burritos and guacamole and salsas.
In a town like Ashford, a garden party is the classic choice, and a hall or club with a car park works if the garden doesn’t. We need a level spot to park and room for a queue. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Your questions about Mexican party catering in Ashford
We are having a ceremony at Parish Church of St Matthew: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
What’s the nearest station to Ashford for guests?
Ashford Surrey station, in Ashford itself.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll recommend how to serve.
How much does party catering cost?
There’s no fixed price list, as each party is different. Send your details and we’ll send a quote.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Yes. Children typically enjoy quesadillas and simple tacos, with salsas served separately. Include children in your numbers.
How early should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.

- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

We cover parties in every part of TW15, TW19 and TW13. That could mean a party at a home with a drive on Church Road, Station Road and London Road or the roads around them.

Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Is Mexican party catering right for your party?
Home-made buffets take ages and sit out for hours. Our food is cooked to order and served hot. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What you get with us
- Quoted for your event
- Served fresh from our food truck or trailer

How we price Mexican party catering
The price comes down to a few factors:
- What the venue already provides
- The number of people
- The menu you choose
- Distance and access to the venue

Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Plan where rubbish goes
- Plan a vegan filling alongside the others
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
- Add a diet question to the invitation
If it rains, we can still serve from the truck or trailer, but plan a gazebo or indoor space for eating.
Burrito bowls for guests who skip tortillas.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. A summer party in Ashford stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with your date, the address, numbers and diets.
- We put a menu together and quote for it.
- Before the day, we check the space, the way in, power and water.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
