Mexican catering in TW18: what to expect

A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so nobody ends up with something they don’t want. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and tacos, and it suits leaving dos and retirement parties and big birthday celebrations.

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure.

  1. It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
  2. We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
  3. We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
  4. On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our truck or trailer.
  5. Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.

Catering events across TW18

TW18 covers everything from Egham, Staines-upon-Thames and Egham Hythe to 0 small villages and hamlets, and a food truck or trailer can work in all of them, given access. Town events mean planning parking; village events mean planning access and ground.

Staines-upon-Thames: A gathering in Penton Park would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like Church of St Peter, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal. Winter evenings in Staines-upon-Thames close in by about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.

Mexican catering or something else?

A drop-off platter is easy, but nobody remembers it. Live service from a truck or trailer gives guests hot food and something to talk about.

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. See our margarita bar guide.

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
  • Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
  • Permission from the venue or landowner

Organising for someone else?

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
