About our Mexican party catering in Dibden
Mexican party catering means no cooking for you and no formal dinner either. Our truck or trailer parks up and we serve hot food as the party goes on. We serve quesadillas, tacos and loaded nachos, and it suits street and neighbourhood parties and retirement and leaving parties.
Parties around Dibden are often relaxed, garden-and-gazebo affairs. A taco truck on the drive fits right in. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

Planning a party in Dibden
Dibden is about 1 mile west of Hythe, in Hampshire. Across the SO45 area, we can serve your guests, as long as there’s access. We serve in 683 places in Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages.
Rail travellers will be glad to hear that Southampton Town Quay station is about 2.2 miles away. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of All Saints, with a party at home or in a hall afterwards. The New Forest National Park is within about 4 miles of Dibden, so a garden party here may come with a lovely view. Country lanes can be narrow, so tell us about the route in. With the sea within about 3 miles of Dibden, a coastal party could work, though promenades normally need the council’s agreement for vehicles.
Anywhere in SO45, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. From Cavalier Close, Cathay Gardens and Canterbury Drive or anywhere nearby, we will plan where to park and serve. We also serve at parties in Dibden Purlieu (1 mile south-east), Hythe (1 mile east), Marchwood (2 miles north-west), Beaulieu (3 miles south) and The Hummicks (4 miles south). We also cater in nearby towns such as Winchester (14 miles north), Gosport (13 miles east), Eastleigh (8 miles north-east), Fareham (10 miles east), Totton (5 miles north-west) and Chandler's Ford (8 miles north).

Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Have enough chairs for most guests
- Have bins ready
- Plan a vegan filling alongside the others
- Ask guests with serious allergies to talk to us first
Kids enjoy queuing at the hatch.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
How the day works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Throwing a late-May party in Dibden? The sun sets at about 8:55pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.
