What affects the price in St Ives
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Travel, parking and access
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The number of people
- The length of service
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Your date and when you want service to start
- How we drive in and where we can park
- What power and water the site has
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, tell us about it on our contact page.
How our Mexican party catering works in St Ives
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there is level, firm ground and a way in that is wide enough. Send us a picture if you’re unsure. On the menu are a build-your-own taco bar, burritos and quesadillas, which works well for retirement celebrations and graduation celebrations.
Near St Ives, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we will plan the set-up. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.
What’s on the menu
Build-your-own taco bar
Warm tortillas, fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out for guests.
Burritos
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings rolled in a large tortilla.
Step by step
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your party. A summer party in St Ives stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.

St Ives: your questions answered
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Will you travel to a small place like St Ives?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How much does Mexican party catering cost in St Ives?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
How much is a taco truck for a party?
We don’t publish set prices, because every party is different. Tell us your numbers and plans for a quote.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you come to St Ives?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including St Ives and the rest of Hampshire. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Generally, if there’s outdoor space to park and the venue’s permission. Ask the venue about food trucks.
Where the truck can go in St Ives
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
