How our Mexican party catering works in Penn
Taco bars are made for parties: everyone builds their own tacos from the fillings and toppings, so fussy eaters and adventurous ones are both happy. On the menu are quesadillas, guacamole and salsas and tacos, which works well for baby celebrations and graduation and exam-results parties.
Country parties near Penn 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. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
At food time, we open the hatch.
Simple quesadillas for children.
How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. For a winter party in Penn, it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.
- You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We confirm access, parking, power and water.
- We set up and serve tacos and more while your guests enjoy the party.
- We pack down after service so the party can carry on.
Preparing for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
