How Mexican catering works in SO19

We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. It works well for retirement and leaving parties and anniversaries and engagements, with fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and tacos.

Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss.

  1. It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
  2. You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
  3. We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
  4. We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
  5. After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.

Cost

There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

Taco catering in SO19: local guide

From Eastleigh, Midanbury and Thornhill to 0 villages and hamlets, events across SO19 range from town-centre venues to gardens and fields, and a food truck or trailer can work in all of them, given access. In towns, plan parking and loading; in villages, tell us about lanes, gates and ground. 13 of the places we cover in SO19 are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we plan for the wind at seaside events.

Southampton: Before you pencil in Rockstone Place Park, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement. If people are travelling in by rail, Southampton has its own station, St Denys station. A December event in Southampton will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.

Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
