Mexican party catering for your party in Henwood
A build-your-own taco bar is ideal for a party: guests fill their own tortillas from fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, so fussy eaters and adventurous ones are both happy. On the menu are loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole and salsas, which works well for big family gatherings and new-home celebrations.
In a small place like Henwood, 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. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Common questions in Henwood
Is Henwood close to London?
Roughly 55 miles from the centre of London.
What’s the nearest station to Henwood for guests?
The closest is Oxford station, roughly 3.4 miles away.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Space for guests to queue
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
How we price Mexican party catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The menu you choose
- Timings and hours
- Distance and access to the venue
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Your date and when you want service to start
- The address or venue name
- Roughly how many adults and children
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

Build-your-own taco bar
The taco bar is where guests gather.
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips loaded with toppings for sharing.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
