Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Shorthampton
Service is planned around your running order: after the drinks reception, between the speeches or once evening guests arrive. We go over timings with your venue beforehand. At informal wedding breakfasts and receptions after a small ceremony, we can serve burrito bowls, evening tacos and quesadillas and more.
A wedding in a small place like Shorthampton often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a food truck comes into its own: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Let us know about access, ground, power and water. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Shorthampton
We’re having a ceremony at Church of All Saints: can you cater afterwards?
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.
Do you come out to small places like Shorthampton?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
What if the timings change?
We adapt. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and serve when you are ready.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
Can we add margaritas?
Our drinks bar can be added, with alcohol-free choices too. Licensing is checked with you and the venue.
Will you talk to our venue?

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
