How Mexican catering works in SO18

Our truck and trailer service tends to suit around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case, so let us know how many you expect. It works well for christenings and family parties and engagement and anniversary parties, serving tacos, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.

Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down.

  1. First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
  2. We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
  3. Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
  4. We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
  5. When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.

Catering events across SO18

Across SO18, we cater in 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from West End, Townhill Park and Midanbury to a quiet hamlet: access, level ground and a clear plan. 17 of the places we cover in SO18 are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we plan for the wind at seaside events, and seafront spots need permission and firm ground for the truck or trailer.

Townhill Park: With the A27 nearby, getting the truck or trailer to Townhill Park is straightforward. By rail: Swaythling station is about 1.1 miles away. Winter evenings in Townhill Park close in by about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

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.

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Working with your venue

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
