How we price Mexican party catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many staff you need
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- The address or venue name
- What power and water the site has
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many adults and children
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

Parties in The Sands: gardens, venues and local tips
The Sands is about 2 miles east of Farnham, in Surrey. Parties in The Sands are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. The Sands is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey we cover. Our nearest city page is Guildford, about 8 miles away.
Families celebrating a christening at a church such as The Church of the Good Shepherd might carry on at a garden or hall where we can park up. Around The Sands, historic houses include Farnham Castle (2.8 miles west) and Wanborough Manor (3.6 miles north-east). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 7 miles of The Sands, so a garden party here may come with a lovely view. Country lanes can be narrow, so tell us about the route in.

How the day works
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. At midsummer, it’s light in The Sands until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

Questions from The Sands
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Crooksbury Hill?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire, and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
