Mexican party catering for Ham events
What we need at the venue
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.

How it works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. A party in Ham in late May has daylight until about 8:45pm. Once dusk falls, some garden lighting by the truck makes ordering easier.
- You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
- You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
- We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
- On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Common questions in Ham
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St George?
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 will check the access.
Is Ham close to London?
It’s about 64 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better, but it is always worth asking. Send your date and we will 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’ll go through the licensing with you.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Is Mexican food OK for kids?
Of course. Children normally enjoy quesadillas and simple tacos, with salsas served separately. Tell us how many children are coming.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Is Mexican party catering right for your party?

What Mexican party catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Distance and access to the venue
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- A picture of where we’d park
To get a price, just tell us about it on our contact page. Give us the details of your party, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
