Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.

Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.

The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Wedding Mexican catering in Ipsden, served fresh
Wedding taco bars feel relaxed, generous and a little different. Everyone fills their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, and the queue turns into part of the fun. For relaxed wedding breakfasts and civil partnerships and vow renewals, we can serve burrito bowls, quesadillas and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and more.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Ipsden, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

How it works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. In Ipsden, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:10pm, so evening tacos are generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You pick the menu with us.
- We confirm the plan with your venue.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
Getting a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Flag any coeliac guests or serious allergies
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Put us in touch with your venue
- Ask whether your venue allows food trucks
If speeches or photos run over, tell us, and we will move the serving time.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or staff, and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Is wedding Mexican catering right for your wedding?
A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian and vegan guests. Tacos cover them with separate fillings. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
