Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Horncastle
Wedding taco bars feel relaxed, generous and a little different. Everyone fills their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, and the queue becomes a chance to chat. For engagement celebrations and informal wedding breakfasts, we can serve burrito bowls, quesadillas and tacos and more.
A farm or garden wedding near Horncastle suits a food truck. We need level ground and access, plus power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. We prepare everything fresh for your wedding and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Horncastle: your questions answered
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Calcot Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Which station is closest to Horncastle?
The closest is Reading West station, roughly 1.6 miles away.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you cater for suppliers?
Yes. Add your suppliers to the final numbers and we’ll plan for them.
Can a taco bar feel special?
With good presentation, it feels like a celebration, and it suits a relaxed day.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What if our speeches run late?
We plan for it. Service starts when your running order says, even if that moves.
