Poynings questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Church of the Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you come out to small places like Poynings?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
How much does party catering cost?
We don’t publish set prices, because every party is different. Send your details and we will send a quote.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you supply plates?
Let us know what you’d like and we will explain the options with your quote.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Poynings.
When do you arrive?

About our Mexican party catering in Poynings
We plan the menu together, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus vegan options such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. It suits garden get-togethers and naming days and christenings, serving tacos, guacamole and salsas and quesadillas.
In a small place like Poynings, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground, and we’ll plan around it. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Who books Mexican party catering in Poynings?
It feeds a crowd without anyone stuck in the kitchen, and the truck or trailer is a talking point.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers
- Garden get-togethers
- Exam-results parties
- New-home celebrations
After a christening at a church like The Church of the Holy Trinity, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends.

What Mexican party catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The number of people
- Travel, parking and access
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you need disposables
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The date and time of the event
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your party, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Have bins ready
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
- Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
If it rains, we can still serve from the truck or trailer, but plan a gazebo or indoor space for eating.
Simple quesadillas for children.
Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue

Mexican party catering or something else?
Compared with a barbecue, a food truck serves steadily from the start, and nobody is stuck at the grill. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
