Mexican catering across RM8
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. Popular choices include burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos, which works well for weddings and evening receptions and engagement celebrations.
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our truck or trailer.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Cost
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.

What Mexican catering costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Guest numbers
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Whether you need disposables
- The menu you choose
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

What’s on the menu
Burritos and burrito bowls
A burrito is a meal in one. The bowl version suits anyone avoiding tortillas.
Build-your-own taco bar
A serving table of fillings, salsas and toppings, with tortillas kept warm. Everyone builds their own.
Planning the serving area
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Comparing your options
With a barbecue, someone usually ends up stuck at the grill. Book us and the cooking happens in our food truck or trailer.
