How our Mexican party catering works in Shanklin Village
Homes, gardens, clubs and hired venues all work in and around Shanklin Village. Send us the address and we’ll check the way in. At garden get-togethers and birthday parties, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and tacos and more.
In Shanklin Village, a back-garden party is the usual choice, but access can be tight. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot out front may work, with permission. Parking needs planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Shanklin Village: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St John?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What about parking in Shanklin Village?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Yes, if there is space outside for the truck or trailer and the venue agrees. Ask the venue about food trucks.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give 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.
How much does Mexican party catering cost in Shanklin Village?

Before you choose a spot
