How our Mexican party catering works in Upper Brailes
A Mexican party takes the food off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We park our food truck or trailer and serve hot food while your guests chat. It works well for neighbourhood celebrations and naming days and christenings, serving tacos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
In a small place like Upper Brailes, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground, and we’ll plan around it. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Before you choose a spot
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Upper Brailes questions
Do you come out to small places like Upper Brailes?
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.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St George: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Normally. We need firm, level ground outside, access and the venue’s agreement.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Check the width of your gate or drive
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
- Plan a vegan filling alongside the others
Allergen information is available for every dish, so guests can check before ordering.
Burrito bowls for guests who skip tortillas.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
