It’s easy to cater for all ages and diets. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and quesadillas go down well with children, with allergen information for every dish. For retirement celebrations and naming days and christenings, we’ll put together a menu of tacos, burritos and quesadillas.
Country parties near Penton Grafton suit a food truck or trailer: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a business, 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.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
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:
- Check the width of your gate or drive
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
- Count adults and children separately
- Have enough chairs for most guests
When you’re ready to eat, we start serving, while you enjoy your guests.
Simple quesadillas for children.

Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
How it works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. For a winter party in Penton Grafton, it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.

Penton Grafton: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Holy Trinity Church?
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.
Will you travel to a small place like Penton Grafton?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Is Mexican food OK for kids?
It’s popular with children, especially quesadillas or simple tacos. Let us know numbers and ages.
When should I book?
Early is best, but ask even if it’s soon. Send your date and we’ll check.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
