Mexican party catering for Effingham events
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Mexican party catering in Effingham, served fresh
Homes, gardens, clubs and hired venues all work in and around Effingham. Send us the address and we’ll check the way in. For engagement and anniversary parties and new-home celebrations, we can serve burritos, loaded nachos and quesadillas for your guests.
Near Effingham, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we will plan the set-up. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Common questions in Effingham
Which station is closest to Effingham?
Guests can use Bookham station, about 1.5 miles north-east of Effingham.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to The Forest and the Highlands?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Yes. Quesadillas and simple tacos go down well with children, and salsas go on the side. Include children in your numbers.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you cater for special diets?
Vegetarian and vegan fillings are cooked and served separately. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the party.
How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. At midsummer, it is light in Effingham until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You pick the fillings and extras.
- We confirm power, water and the way in.
- Service starts at the agreed time.
- We pack away and the party carries on.
Getting ready for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
