Mexican party catering for Five Ashes events

Mexican party catering for your party in Five Ashes

A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that is wide enough. Send us a photo if you’re unsure. It works well for exam-results parties and baby celebrations, with a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and burritos.

Near Five Ashes, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we will plan around it. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Planning for every diet

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

FAQs for Five Ashes

We’re having a ceremony at Church of the Good Shepherd: 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.

How far is Five Ashes from central London?

Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.

Do you cater at halls and clubs?

Normally, if there’s outdoor space to park and the venue’s permission. Ask the venue about food trucks.

How much space do you need?

A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.

How early should we book?

As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.

Can guests build their own tacos?

Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.

How much is a food truck for an event?

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • The length of service

What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • The address or venue name
  • Expected numbers
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • The date and time of the event

The quickest way to a quote is to drop us a line using the enquiry form. Give us the details of your party, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.

How the day works

A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. A party in Five Ashes in late May has daylight until about 8:50pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
  2. You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
  3. We confirm access, parking, power and water.
  4. On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
  5. After serving, we tidy up and leave you to celebrate.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
