How our wedding Mexican catering works in Merle Common

Popular choices include quesadillas, evening tacos and burrito bowls, and it is a good fit for engagement celebrations and rustic barn weddings.
Near Merle Common, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A truck or trailer works well there: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Let us know about access, ground, power and water. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Merle Common
Which station should guests use for Merle Common?
The closest is Hurst Green station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like Merle Common?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
What about power on site?
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.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you do evening food as well as the main meal?
Yes: one part of the day, or both main meals, from the wedding breakfast to evening food. Tell us what you have in mind.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Working with your venue
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
