How our wedding Mexican catering works in Chalkhouse Green
We can do the wedding breakfast, evening food, or the two together. One option is a taco bar for the main meal and tacos or nachos later on. On the menu are fresh guacamole and salsas, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and evening tacos, which works well for vow renewals and blessings and garden and marquee weddings.
A wedding in a small place like Chalkhouse Green often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Let us know about access, ground, power and water. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Your menu ideas
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- The address or venue name
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Why choose wedding Mexican catering in Chalkhouse Green?

FAQs for Chalkhouse Green
Do you cater in villages like Chalkhouse Green?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Is Chalkhouse Green close to London?
About 38 miles from central London, and we cover it.
What if the timings change?
We adapt. We stay in touch with your coordinator and move the serving time if needed.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
How the day works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Late-September weddings in Chalkhouse Green see the sun go down at about 7:10pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. In late May it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You pick the menu with us.
- We confirm the plan with your venue.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
Getting a price
