Mexican party catering for your party in Shaw
Taco bars are made for parties: everyone builds their own tacos from the fillings and toppings, so everybody gets what they like. Popular choices include burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and tacos, which works well for exam-results parties and christenings and naming days.

How it works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. A party in Shaw in late May has daylight until about 8:55pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.

Questions from Shaw
Could you serve our guests after a service at Parish Church of St Mary?
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.
What’s the nearest station to Shaw for guests?
Guests can use Newbury Racecourse station, about 0.8 miles south-east of Shaw.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Often, yes. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Do you come to Shaw?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Shaw and across West Berkshire. Send us your date to check availability.
Can you serve from my drive or garden?
Usually, if there’s firm, level ground and a way in that is wide and tall enough. Send a picture and we’ll check.

Planning the serving area
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A quick photo of the access helps us plan

- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site

Why choose Mexican party catering in Shaw?
A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Tacos and burritos are served hot, order by order. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican party catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

- Serving staff
- Food, drinks or both
- Parking and the route in
- Guest numbers
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- What power and water the site has
- The venue or postcode
- What you’d like on the menu
- The date and rough timings
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
