Burford is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire where we can bring Mexican party catering. We cater right across the region, from Burford to Oxford (18 miles away).

Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St John the Baptist, with a party at home or in a hall afterwards.

What happens on the day

We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. A summer party in Burford 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.

  1. We start by checking your date and the space.
  2. You choose fillings, sides and extras.
  3. We confirm power, water and the way in.
  4. We serve hot food at the time you choose.
  5. We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.

How to prepare

  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Burford: your questions answered

Is Burford close to London?

Roughly 69 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.

What’s the nearest station to Burford for guests?

The closest is Shipton station, roughly 4.5 miles away.

Can you cater in a back garden?

It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.

Do you have vegan options?

Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.

Where do you cater?

We cover London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.

Do you have gluten-free options?

We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better, but it is always worth asking. Send your date and we’ll check.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

How to compare caterers

Working with your venue

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

Planning for every diet

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Make sure most people can sit to eat
  • Give separate numbers for children
  • Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
  • Have bins ready

We keep our serving area tidy and safe, with space for a queue.

Bowls as an alternative to tacos.

What affects the price in Burford

We quote for your event, and the price is based on:

  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • Guest numbers

Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

What to tell us

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • What power and water the site has

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, use our quote form.

What we need at the venue

Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
  • Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
  • Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

About the menu

Quesadillas

Crisp quesadillas, cut into wedges.

Tacos

Soft tacos with your choice of filling, served from the hatch.

Should I do it myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
