Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
For event organisers in Bassett
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Space for guests to queue
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- What’s on the menu
- The length of service
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican party catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

Bassett questions
How far is Bassett from London?
It’s about 69 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you come to a seaside event near Bassett?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you cater for special diets?
Vegetarian and vegan fillings are cooked and served separately, and every dish is labelled. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the party.
Can you do a kids’ option?
It’s popular with children, especially quesadillas or simple tacos. Tell us how many children and their ages.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Comparing your options
For a party that feels a little special without being formal, tacos and a taco bar fit perfectly. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
