Mexican party catering for your party in Ilmer
Mixed ages and mixed diets are easy. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and quesadillas go down well with children. It suits anniversary celebrations and housewarmings, serving loaded nachos, burritos and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a small place like Ilmer, 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 around it. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Should I do it myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
FAQs for Ilmer
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Peter?
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 will check the access.
Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Yes. Quesadillas and simple tacos go down well with children, with salsas served separately. Include children in your numbers.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you have vegan options?
We keep vegetarian and vegan fillings separate, and every dish is labelled. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to speak to us first.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

The process
Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. A summer party in Ilmer stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

What Mexican party catering costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Food, drinks or both
- The number of people
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Distance and access to the venue
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
