About our Mexican party catering in Horncastle
We plan the menu together, perhaps with carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. Popular choices include loaded nachos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits anniversaries and engagement parties and new-home celebrations.
Parties around Horncastle are often relaxed, garden-and-gazebo affairs. A food truck or trailer fits right in. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Planning the serving area
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- A photo of the drive or garden helps us check the space
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Is Mexican party catering right for your party?
A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Our food is cooked to order and served hot. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican party catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
What you get with us
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included

- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both

Horncastle: your questions answered
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Michael: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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 it possible to have you in Calcot Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can you cater for special diets?
We can. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Can you park at my house?
Often, yes, if there is level, firm ground and access wide and high enough for the truck or trailer. Send a picture and we’ll check.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Often, yes. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, Reading included. See all areas.
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
