Wedding Mexican catering near Norcot
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Norcot
Our drinks bar can serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices for drivers and children. Licensing is checked with you and the venue first. It suits marquee and garden weddings and farm and barn venues, serving burrito bowls, loaded nachos and fresh guacamole and salsas.
A farm or garden wedding near Norcot suits a food truck. We need level ground and access. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Count day and evening guests separately
- Flag any coeliac guests or serious allergies
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
If things run late, and we will move the serving time.
Include your suppliers in the numbers if you add them to the final count.

The process
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Late-September weddings in Norcot see the sun go down at about 7:10pm, which can put the evening food just after dusk. A late-May wedding keeps its light until roughly 8:55pm.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s 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.
