The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.

- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Roughly how many adults and children

Why choose wedding Mexican catering in Monkwood?
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. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Book food, drinks or both
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests

Monkwood: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at Monkwood Mission 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. Send us the reception address.
Is Monkwood close to London?
About 51 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Can a taco bar feel special?
With good presentation, it feels like a celebration.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service usually suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Flag any coeliac guests or serious allergies
- Tell us how many evening guests to expect
- Tell us when the speeches will be
- Enquire early for summer Saturdays
A taco bar is laid out on a table, and guests come up table by table if you like.
Add our drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
