Wedding Mexican catering for Merrow events
Step by step
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. December weddings in Merrow lose the light by about 3:55pm, so the evening food will be served after dark. Ask your venue what outdoor lighting it has near where we will park.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Give us your final numbers and diets
How to get a price

Wedding Mexican catering in Merrow, from our truck or trailer
Our drinks bar can serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options too. We will check the licensing with you and your venue. Popular choices include quesadillas, burrito bowls and loaded nachos, which works well for engagement celebrations and blessings and vow renewals.
A farm or garden wedding near Merrow suits a food truck. We’ll need level, firm ground and a way to reach it, plus power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
A closer look at the menu
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings in a bowl, easy to eat seated.
Evening tacos
Tacos from the hatch, easy to eat standing up.
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Why choose wedding Mexican catering in Merrow?
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen and a larger team. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and the style is more relaxed. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Merrow questions
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St John the Evangelist?
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 will check the access.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Is the food made fresh?
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.
Can you cater for vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
