About our Mexican party catering in Totton
A Mexican party takes the food off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. Our food truck or trailer parks up and we serve hot food as the party goes on. It suits neighbourhood celebrations and birthday parties, serving burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole and salsas.
Birthdays and summer parties in Totton often happen at home or in a local hall. A food truck can work at either, given drive access and a level spot. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Hosting a taco party in Totton

Historic houses near Totton include Southampton Tudor House and Garden (4.5 miles east) and Medieval Merchant's House (4.6 miles east).

Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St Winfred, with a party at home or in a hall afterwards. Totton is within about 5 miles of the New Forest National Park, so a garden party here may come with a lovely view. Country lanes can be narrow, so tell us about the route in. With the sea within about 5 miles of Totton, a coastal party could work, though promenades normally need the council’s agreement for vehicles.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Let the neighbours know
- Ask guests with serious allergies to talk to us first
- Have bins ready
- Count adults and children separately
We arrive before your guests to set up.

Questions from Totton
Can you serve near the sea around Totton?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Do you come to events 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.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Yes, if there’s space outside for the truck or trailer and the venue agrees. Ask the venue about food trucks.
Do we need to provide plates?
Ask us when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Is my garden suitable?
Usually, if there is firm, level ground and a way in that is wide and tall enough. Send a picture and we will check.
How far ahead should we book?
Early is best, but ask even if it’s soon. Send your date and we will check.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Prices and what affects them
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- Timings and hours
- Serving staff
- The number of people
- Your choice of food and drinks
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Your date and when you want service to start
- A picture of where we’d park
- Your menu ideas

How the day works
