Mexican party catering in Colwood
Mexican party catering in Colwood, served fresh
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, as long as the ground is firm and level and the access is wide enough. Send us a photo if you are unsure. We serve guacamole and salsas, burritos and quesadillas, which works well for engagement and anniversary parties and street and neighbourhood parties.
A country party near Colwood is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Organising for someone else?
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Colwood? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Common questions in Colwood
How far is Colwood from London?
It’s about 35 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
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 big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service usually suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Do we need to provide plates?
Tell us what you need, and we will set out what we can do in the quote.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How it compares
Pizza is a familiar party choice. A taco truck stands out. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

Where the truck can go in Colwood
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
