Other catering in Merton
Planning a party in Merton
Merton is about 3 miles south of Bicester, in Oxfordshire. We serve at parties in gardens, halls and venues around Merton and the surrounding area. Merton is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we can bring Mexican party catering. We cater right across the region, from Merton to Oxford (about 8 miles away).
After a christening at a church like Church of St Swithin, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends. Historic houses near Merton include Boarstall Tower (3.7 miles south-east). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.

Neighbouring places where we cater parties include Fencott (1 mile south), Murcott (1 mile south-east), Charlton-on-Otmoor (1 mile south-west), Wendlebury (2 miles north-west) and Lower Arncott (2 miles east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Oxford (8 miles south), Bicester (3 miles north), Abingdon-on-Thames (13 miles south), Witney (15 miles west), Thame (11 miles south-east) and Kidlington (6 miles south-west).

Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
How it works
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. A party in Merton in late May has daylight until about 9:00pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.
- We start by checking your date and the space.
- You choose fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm power, water and the way in.
- We serve hot food at the time you choose.
- We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
