Choosing a Mexican caterer

The process

On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. For an evening event in Hadley Wood, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.

  1. It starts with your event details and pitch information.
  2. We confirm our menu, our pitch needs and the paperwork your event asks for.
  3. We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
  4. We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
  5. We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.

Catering for every guest

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Put picnic tables near the traders
  • Plan access routes for trader vehicles
  • Check every diet is covered by the line-up
  • Check how traders handle peak times

We set up at the agreed time, following your trader pack.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Working with your venue

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

  • 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
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
