Wedding Mexican catering for Rough Common events
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Rough Common
The truck or trailer adds a splash of colour to the day, and guests like watching their food being served. It works well for receptions after an intimate ceremony and day-after wedding get-togethers, serving loaded nachos, burrito bowls and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast.
Near Rough Common, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Rough Common: your questions answered
Could you come to a seaside event near Rough Common?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St. Gabriel?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Can you cater for all our guests’ diets?
We can. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How much does wedding Mexican catering cost in Rough Common?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Can you feed our photographer and band?
Of course. Include suppliers in your numbers.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.

What happens on the day
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. For a summer wedding in Rough Common, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, which means evening food is typically served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:50pm.

- We plan the food with you: wedding breakfast, evening food or both.
- We agree access, timings, power and water with you and your venue.
