Mexican party catering for Upton events
About our Mexican party catering in Upton
A Mexican party takes the food off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We park our truck or trailer and serve hot food while your guests chat. At garden get-togethers and family reunions, we can serve loaded nachos, tacos and burritos.
For a party in Upton, your garden is often the best venue. Let us know how the truck or trailer can reach the garden, and we will plan the rest. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

A closer look at the menu
Loaded nachos
Nachos are a party favourite.
Build-your-own taco bar
Warm tortillas, fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out for guests, so everyone builds their own.
Should I do it myself?
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.
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.

Parties in Upton: gardens, venues and local tips
Upton is about 1 mile south-east of Slough, in Slough. For Mexican party catering in Upton, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. Upton is one of 31 towns and villages in Slough we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Upton to Reading (about 17 miles away).
If your garden is hard to reach, local venues and clubs near Upton can be an alternative, as long as the truck or trailer can get in. Parks such as Herschel Park usually need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often easier.
Wherever your party is in SL1, SL3 and SL2, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Mere Road, Upton Road and High Street, and a party on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

Questions from Upton
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Laurence: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Could you serve in Herschel Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Normally, if there is outdoor space to park and the venue’s permission. Ask the venue about food trucks.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, including Slough. Find your area.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- A quick photo of the access helps us plan
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
