How our Mexican party catering works in St Helens
Mexican party catering means no cooking for you and no formal dinner either. Our food truck or trailer parks up and we serve hot food as the party goes on. For graduation and exam-results parties and street and neighbourhood parties, we’ll put together a menu of burritos, tacos and quesadillas for your guests.
In a small place like St Helens, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we’ll plan the set-up. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Planning help
Comparing your options
A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Our food is cooked to order and served hot. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What you get with us
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Quoted for your event
- We cover St Helens and the whole of the Isle of Wight
- Book food, drinks or both
See how we price or the cost guide.
Planning for every diet
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Have bins ready
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Count adults and children separately
- Have cover ready for a shower
We keep our serving area tidy and safe.
Burrito bowls for guests who skip tortillas.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Serving staff
- Whether you need disposables
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How long we are needed on site
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican party catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of where we’d park
- What you’d like on the menu
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Send us the date, your venue or PO33 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just tell us about it on our contact page.
Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
The menu, item by item
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips loaded with toppings.
Burritos
A filling burrito wrapped up to eat on the go.
What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- A photo of the drive or garden helps us check the space
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
Out-of-the-way places like St Helens take a little more planning, so let us know about tracks, gates and power in good time.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
