Mexican party catering for your party in Otterbourne
We plan the menu together, perhaps with carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus vegan options such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and guacamole and salsas, and it’s a good fit for retirement and leaving parties and exam-results parties.
Country parties near Otterbourne suit a food truck or trailer: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Dietary needs and planning tips
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To get it right:
- Check the width of your gate or drive

What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, planned around your event. In Otterbourne, it’s light until about 9:25pm in June but dark by about 4:00pm in December, so the time of year shapes an evening party.

It is about 64 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Matthew?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
What happens if it rains?
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 have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
We can. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
How much does party catering cost?
There’s no fixed price list, as each party is different. Send your details and we will send a quote.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
