How our Mexican party catering works in Shorthampton

The menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. Popular choices include guacamole and salsas, a build-your-own taco bar and quesadillas, and it is a good fit for graduation celebrations and family get-togethers.

Country parties near Shorthampton suit a food truck or trailer: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Vegetarian and vegan fillings are cooked and served separately. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the party.

How many guests can you serve?

It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.

How is the food prepared?

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.

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
