Mexican party catering in Balmerlawn, from our truck or trailer
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that’s wide enough. Send us a photo if you are unsure. It suits graduation celebrations and family reunions, with burritos, quesadillas and tacos.
In a small place like Balmerlawn, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground, and we’ll plan the set-up. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Planners, venues and businesses
Organising a club, school or community event in Balmerlawn? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Is Mexican party catering right for your party?

What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. A party in Balmerlawn in late May has daylight until about 8:55pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.
- You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any 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 set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
