We are set up before guests arrive, so food is ready when you want it.

Mexican party catering in Walstead, from our truck or trailer
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that is wide enough. Send us a photo if you’re unsure. At garden parties and housewarmings, we’ll put together a menu of burritos, quesadillas and tacos.
In a small place like Walstead, 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. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Where the truck can go in Walstead
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
DIY taco night or 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. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
What affects the price in Walstead
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Serving staff
- Whether you need disposables
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food

There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican party catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

To check availability and price, we need:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- The venue or postcode

- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground

Walstead questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Eastern Road Nature Reserve?
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 will send what they need from us.
We are having a ceremony at Church of the Good Shepherd: 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. Tell us where the reception will be.
How far ahead should we book?
Early is best, but ask even if it’s soon. We’ll check availability for you.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll recommend how to serve.
How much does party catering cost?
We quote for each party, depending on numbers, menu and where you are. Contact us for a quote.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.
