Wedding Mexican catering in Crockenhill
Wedding Mexican catering in Crockenhill, from our food truck or trailer
A food truck or trailer suits barns, marquees, gardens and venues with hardstanding, as long as we can drive in safely and park on level ground. It suits late-evening wedding food and parties after a register office wedding, serving loaded nachos, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and quesadillas.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Crockenhill, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Crockenhill
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of All Souls?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How far is Crockenhill from central London?
It’s about 14 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
What about supplier meals?
Yes, include them in your numbers. Tell us when they’ll eat.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Golden-hour photos in Crockenhill at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so we can time the evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
