Ropley questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How far is Ropley from central London?
It is about 51 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How much is a taco truck for a party?
We quote for each party, depending on numbers, menu and where you are. Contact us for a quote.
Can you serve from my drive or garden?
It depends on the access and the ground. Let us know about gates, slopes and soft grass, and we’ll check it works.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Ropley.
When should I book?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Check your date with us.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Mexican party catering in Ropley, from our truck or trailer
You get to be a guest at your own party: no shopping, no cooking and no washing up of pans. The food is our job. It works well for neighbourhood celebrations and big family gatherings, with guacamole and salsas, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar.
Country parties near Ropley suit a food truck or trailer: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- The number of people
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many adults and children
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
