How our Mexican party catering works in Coombe
Add our drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options for drivers and children. We will check the licensing with you. Popular choices include tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and quesadillas, and it suits retirement and leaving parties and birthday parties.
In a small place like Coombe, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we will plan around it. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
How it works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. A summer party in Coombe stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
- We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
- We set up and serve tacos and more while your guests enjoy the party.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Coombe questions
What’s the nearest station to Coombe for guests?
Guests can use Sandwich station, about 2.1 miles east of Coombe.
Will you travel to a small place like Coombe?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
What Mexican party catering costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- What the venue already provides
- Food, drinks or both
- Timings and hours
- The menu you choose
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Your date and when you want service to start
- The address or venue name
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.

Comparing your options
A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Separate fillings cover every diet. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
