Mexican party catering for your party in Oakshott
Tacos are relaxed party food: easy to eat with one hand, so guests can keep chatting and there is no need for a seating plan. It works well for leaving dos and retirements and naming days and christenings, serving tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos.
A country party near Oakshott is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Oakshott questions
How far is Oakshott from central London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Which station should guests use for Oakshott?
The closest is Liss station, roughly 2.2 miles away.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
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.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

These are the factors that matter most:
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
- What’s on the menu

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Expected numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Your menu ideas
- The venue or postcode
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
