Mexican party catering in Hound
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

Hound questions
How far is Hound from central London?
It is about 69 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you serve near the sea around Hound?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
How much does party catering cost?
We do not publish set prices, because every party is different. Tell us your numbers and plans for a quote.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
How early should we book?
The sooner the better, but it is always worth asking. We will check availability for you.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
We keep vegetarian and vegan fillings separate. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to speak to us first.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Comparing your options
If you want special but not formal, tacos and a taco bar fit perfectly. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
What we offer in Hound

Working with your venue
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Hound parties: what to know
Hound is about 3 miles east of Hythe, in Hampshire. Whether your party is in the middle of Hound or on the outskirts, Mexican party catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in 683 places across Hampshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St Mary, with a party at home or in a hall afterwards. For guests coming by train, Hound has its own station, Netley station. For a party in the countryside, the New Forest National Park is within about 7 miles. Rural gardens and fields work well for a truck, given firm ground and a way in. With the sea within about 2 miles of Hound, a coastal party could work, though promenades normally need the council’s agreement for vehicles.
Anywhere in SO31, we can bring Mexican party catering to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From Hound Road, Hound Road Gardens and Hound Close or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. For parties just outside Hound, we cover Butlocks Heath (1 mile north), Netley (1 mile north-west), Hamble-le-Rice (1 mile south-east), Old Netley (1 mile north-east) and Bursledon (1 mile north-east).

Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Check the width of your gate or drive
- Plan somewhere for guests to sit and eat
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
- Give separate numbers for children
We arrive before your guests to set up, so food is ready when you want it.

- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field

What happens on the day
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. A party in Hound in late May has daylight until about 8:55pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.
- We start by checking your 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 pack away and the party carries on.
How to prepare
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
