Questions from Gunville
Could you serve our guests after a service at St. Mary's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you serve near the sea around Gunville?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Is my garden suitable?
Typically, if there is firm, level ground and a way in that’s wide and tall enough. Send us a picture of the space.
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 take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
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. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Mexican party catering in Gunville, from our truck or trailer
Mexican party catering means no cooking for you and no formal dinner either. We park our truck or trailer and serve hot food while your guests chat. We serve quesadillas, guacamole and salsas and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for garden get-togethers and street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers.
A country party near Gunville is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. A party in Gunville in late May has daylight until about 8:55pm. Once dusk falls, some garden lighting by the truck makes ordering easier.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You pick the fillings and extras.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- Service starts at the agreed time.
- We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.

Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Plan somewhere for guests to sit and eat
- Warn the neighbours about the truck
- Check the width of your gate or drive
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
We’re set up before guests arrive, so food is ready when you want it.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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 will do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Planning the serving area
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- A quick photo of the access helps us plan
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
Out-of-the-way places like Gunville take a little more planning, so let us know about tracks, gates and power in good time.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
