Space, access and the venue

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
  • A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
  • Send a photo of the spot so we can check

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What Mexican party catering costs

Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • The length of service
  • Your choice of food and drinks
  • Distance and access to the venue

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Getting an accurate quote

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children

Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Diets, allergies and planning

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
  • Warn the neighbours about the truck
  • Plan a vegan filling alongside the others
  • Tell us how many children are coming

We arrive before your guests to set up.

Step by step

The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A party in Crawley in late May has daylight until about 8:50pm. Once dusk falls, some garden lighting by the truck makes ordering easier.

  1. First, we check the date and the space.
  2. You pick the fillings and extras.
  3. We confirm power, water and the way in.
  4. Service starts at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.

Getting ready for the day

  • Ask the venue about power and water
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Getting a price

Send us the date, your venue or RH10 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Planning help

Crawley: your questions answered

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Tilgate Park?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

We’re having a ceremony at Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony: can you cater afterwards?

Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.

Can you serve in the rain?

We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.

Do you do margaritas?

Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.

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 check every dish and give allergen information.

Do you provide allergen information for each dish?

We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.

How much does party catering cost?

We do not publish set prices, as each party is different. Send your details and we will send a quote.

Is Mexican party catering right for your party?

A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Separate fillings cover every diet. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
