Mexican party catering for Kencot events
Mexican party catering in Kencot, from our truck or trailer
Taco bars are made for parties: guests fill their own tortillas from fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, so fussy eaters and adventurous ones are both happy. For baby celebrations and summer garden parties, we will put together a menu of guacamole and salsas, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
A country party near Kencot is a good fit for street food: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Events we cater in Kencot
It feeds a crowd without anyone stuck in the kitchen, and the truck or trailer is a talking point.
Whatever the occasion, our truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We can cater:
- Christenings and naming days
- Graduation and exam-results parties
- Retirement and leaving parties
- Birthday parties
Around Kencot, historic houses include Kelmscott Manor (4 miles south). If you’re hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on outside caterers and vehicles first.
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if it rains
- How each diet is kept separate
- How many staff are serving, and for how long
- Exactly what’s included in the price
Prices and what affects them
Contact us for a quote, and the price is based on:
- What the venue already provides
- What’s on the menu
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How long we are needed on site
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican party catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- How we drive in and where we can park
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- The venue or postcode
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
FAQs for Kencot
How far is Kencot from London?
About 67 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you serve from my drive or garden?
That depends on the way in and the ground. Tell us about gates, slopes and soft lawns, and we will check it works.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
How early should we book?
Early, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Comparing your options
Pizza vans are popular, but most parties have had one. Tacos and nachos feel a little different. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Why us?
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- A menu built around your guests
- Allergen information for every dish

Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell us how many children are coming

- Plan somewhere for guests to sit and eat
- Have bins ready
At food time, we open the hatch, while you enjoy your guests.
Bowls as an alternative to tacos.
Planning the serving area
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A picture of the drive or garden helps us check the space
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
