About our Mexican party catering in Stanswood
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that is wide enough. Not sure? Send us a photo. For garden parties and birthday parties, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and guacamole and salsas.
A country party near Stanswood is a good fit for street food: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Before you choose a spot
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
Common questions in Stanswood
Do you cater at coastal events near Stanswood?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots generally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you serve from my drive or garden?
Usually, if there’s firm, level ground and a way in that’s wide and tall enough. Send us a picture of the space.
How much does party catering cost?
There is no fixed price list, because every party is different. Tell us your numbers and plans for a quote.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, Hampshire included. Find your area.
Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

About the menu
Tacos
Soft tacos with your choice of filling, served hot from the truck or trailer.
Salsas and guacamole
Guests add as much salsa as they like.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
