DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Wedding Mexican catering in Lower Hartlip, from our food truck or trailer
For weddings in Lower Hartlip and nearby, we can cater one part of the day or both main meals. Share your plans and we will suggest a menu. On the menu are quesadillas, fresh guacamole and salsas and tacos, and it suits parties after a register office wedding and engagement parties.
A wedding in a small place like Lower Hartlip often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a food truck comes into its own: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We prepare everything fresh for your wedding and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
What wedding Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- The length of service
- How many guests we’re serving
- What the venue already provides
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.

Lower Hartlip questions
Do you cater in villages like Lower Hartlip?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Foxburrow Wood?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can we add margaritas?
Yes, we have a drinks bar, with bar staff serving your guests. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we will check that with you.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Can you feed our photographer and band?
Yes. Add your suppliers to the final numbers and we’ll plan for them.
Is Mexican street food too casual for a wedding?
Served well, it feels generous and special, and it suits a relaxed day.
Before you choose a spot
If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A serving spot close to the marquee or reception area
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.
What we offer
- Guacamole and salsas
- Margarita bar
- Nachos to share
- Burritos and bowls
- Taco bar wedding breakfast
- Evening tacos
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Comparing your options
A taco bar is less formal than a plated meal, but it can still feel like a celebration. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
