How our wedding Mexican catering works in Capel Cross
A taco bar at a wedding feels relaxed and generous. Everyone fills their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, and the queue turns into part of the fun. For weddings with mixed diets and weddings in a marquee or garden, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, evening tacos and quesadillas and more.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Capel Cross, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

- Connect us with your coordinator

- Count day and evening guests separately
- Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies

Capel Cross: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Capel Cross?
The closest is Marden station, roughly 3.5 miles away.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Kent included. Find your area.
What affects the price in Capel Cross
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Food, drinks or both
- The length of service
- What the venue already provides
- Parking and the route in
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Your date and when you want service to start
- The venue or postcode
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just send us your details through our quote form.

How it works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. In Capel Cross, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:00pm, which means evening food is typically served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Find out what power and water are available
