Mexican party catering for your party in Swallowfield

A country party near Swallowfield 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 prepare everything fresh for your party and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Questions from Swallowfield
We’re having a ceremony at Church of All Saints: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Which station should guests use for Swallowfield?
Mortimer station, about 3.3 miles west of the centre.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Tell us what you need, and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t usually stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
How spicy is the food?
It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.

Occasions we cater for in Swallowfield
Guests choose their own fillings and toppings.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Big family gatherings
- New-home celebrations
- Retirement and leaving parties

Close to Swallowfield are historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (2.6 miles south-west). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Step by step
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not typically stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. At midsummer, it is light in Swallowfield until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
