Wedding Mexican catering in Shorne, from our food truck or trailer
Evening food needs to be quick and filling, and tacos or loaded nachos from our food truck or trailer fit the bill without stopping the dancing for long. It suits weddings with mixed diets and garden and marquee weddings, serving quesadillas, loaded nachos and burrito bowls.
Rural weddings around Shorne have a charm of their own, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Common questions in Shorne
Do you cater in villages like Shorne?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Shorne for guests?
Higham station, about 1.7 miles north-east of the centre.
Can a taco bar feel special?
Served well, it feels generous and special.
Can you feed our photographer and band?
Yes. Include suppliers in your numbers and we will plan for them.
Is the food made fresh?
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.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you do a wedding bar?
Yes, we have a drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we will check that with you.
What happens on the day
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. In Shorne, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:00pm, so evening tacos are typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
