Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Barnes Cray
Our drinks bar can serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options too. Licensing is checked with you and the venue first. We serve fresh guacamole and salsas, tacos and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, and it suits receptions after an intimate ceremony and big weddings with every diet.
A farm or garden wedding near Barnes Cray suits a food truck. We’ll need level, firm ground and a way to reach it. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. At midsummer, sunset in Barnes Cray is about 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Check your date with us early
- Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
The truck or trailer can be placed where guests can see it, which makes a good photo.
Quesadillas suit younger guests at the wedding breakfast.
Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Comparing your options
A buffet can leave food sitting out. Tacos go straight from the hatch to the plate. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What you get with us
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- A menu agreed with you
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar

- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we offer
- Guacamole and salsas
- Taco bar wedding breakfast
- Margarita bar

Questions from Barnes Cray
Which station is closest to Barnes Cray?
Guests can use Slade Green station, about 0.7 miles north of Barnes Cray.
We’re having a ceremony at Christ Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Can a taco bar feel special?
Served well, it feels generous and special.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What if our speeches run late?
Tell us and we will adjust. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and move the serving time if needed.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

What else we do in Barnes Cray
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
