Mexican party catering for Fordcombe events
Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
- Plan where rubbish goes
- Measure your gate or driveway
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
Kids enjoy queuing at the hatch, and quesadillas are a safe bet.
Loaded nachos to share while the party gets going.
About our Mexican party catering in Fordcombe
We cater parties at homes, village halls with outdoor space, clubs and hired venues. Send us the address and we’ll check the way in. It works well for anniversary celebrations and housewarming parties, serving guacamole and salsas, tacos and burritos.
In a small place like Fordcombe, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground, and we will plan the set-up. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Should I do it 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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Fordcombe: your questions answered
Do you cater in villages like Fordcombe?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you cover Fordcombe?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Fordcombe. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
How early should we book?
Early is best, but ask even if it is soon. Send your date and we’ll check.
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. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Is Mexican party catering right for your party?
Ordering takeaway is easy but forgettable. A food truck at your party is something guests remember. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
