About our Mexican party catering in Great Shefford
A build-your-own taco bar is ideal for a party: everyone builds their own tacos from the fillings and toppings, so everybody gets what they like. We serve guacamole and salsas, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos, which works well for retirement and leaving parties and baby celebrations.
Country parties near Great Shefford suit a food truck or trailer: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Your questions about Mexican party catering in Great Shefford
Do you cater in the North Wessex Downs 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.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you cover Great Shefford?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Great Shefford is within our area and the rest of West Berkshire. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you cater for children?
It is popular with children, particularly quesadillas. Let us know numbers and ages.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.

Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Measure your gate or driveway
- Ask guests with serious allergies to talk to us first
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Plan where rubbish goes
After service, we pack away, so the party carries on.
Extra salsas and toppings for the taco bar.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
