Wedding Mexican catering in Claygate
Wedding Mexican catering in Claygate, from our food truck or trailer
A taco bar at a wedding feels relaxed and generous. Guests build their own plates from warm tortillas, fillings, salsas and toppings, and the queue turns into part of the fun. It suits barn and farm weddings and engagement celebrations, with evening tacos, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and fresh guacamole and salsas.
A farm or garden wedding near Claygate suits a food truck. We will need level, firm ground and a way to reach it, plus power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Questions from Claygate
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Claygate Common?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Surrey Hills 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.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What if the timings change?
Tell us and we’ll adjust. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and serve when you’re ready.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: 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.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
How the day works
Here’s how the day normally runs: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Golden-hour photos in Claygate at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so we can time the evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
