Take a look at how we price and what Mexican catering costs.
Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- 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 photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
How we price Mexican party catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Travel, parking and access
- Guest numbers
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Getting an accurate quote
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The venue or postcode
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- The date and rough timings
- What you’d like on the menu
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
Drayton parties: what to know
Drayton is about 2 miles south of Purbrook, in Portsmouth. Whether your party is in the middle of Drayton or on the outskirts, Mexican party catering works the same way: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Drayton is one of 19 places in Portsmouth we cover. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 16 miles away.
Families celebrating a christening at a church such as Drayton Methodist Church might carry on at a garden or hall where we can park up. Nearby historic houses include Warblington Castle (3.4 miles east). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. Near the coast, within about 5 miles, a beach-side party is tempting, but seafront spots need permission and firm ground for the truck or trailer.
Wherever your party is in PO6, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Galt Road, Hirst Road and Court Lane, and a party on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Other places close to Drayton for Mexican party catering include Farlington (1 mile east), Widley (1 mile north), Cosham (1 mile west), Wymering (1 mile west) and Hilsea (2 miles south-west). Larger places within reach include Portsmouth (3 miles south-west), Southsea (4 miles south), Milton (4 miles south), Landport (3 miles south-west), Baffins (3 miles south) and Rudmore (3 miles south-west).
Well-known places in the area include Portchester Castle (3.1 miles west) and World War I Remembrance Centre (1 mile south). Green spaces nearby include Portsdown Hill and Southmoor Nature Reserve.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
The process
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. At midsummer, it is light in Drayton until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- We put a menu together and quote for it.
- We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
Getting a price
Send us the date, your venue or PO6 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. To get started, send a quick message through our quote form.
