Wedding Mexican catering near Monks Orchard
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Monks Orchard
Add our Mexican drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices for drivers and children. Licensing is checked with you and the venue first. It works well for weddings with lots of dietary needs and receptions after an intimate ceremony, serving burrito bowls, tacos and fresh guacamole and salsas.
In Monks Orchard, couples might book tacos for the wedding breakfast, the evening, or both. Narrow streets mean we plan where the truck or trailer stops, and some venues may need a parking suspension from the council. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

FAQs for Monks Orchard
Could you serve our guests after a service at St George The Martyr Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
What’s the nearest station to Monks Orchard for guests?
Guests can use Elmers End station, about 1.2 miles north of Monks Orchard.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you cater the whole day?
We can. A taco bar works well as a wedding breakfast, and tacos or nachos make good evening food.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
