About our wedding Mexican catering in Thorncross
We plan the wedding menu with you, perhaps with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, alongside vegan choices like black beans or spiced mushrooms. It suits sharing-style wedding meals and receptions after an intimate ceremony, with burrito bowls, tacos and loaded nachos.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Thorncross, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Prices and what affects them
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- How many staff you need
- Food, drinks or both
- Parking and the route in
- Timings and hours
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Diets and allergies you know about
- A picture of where we’d park
- The address or venue name
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
For somewhere as remote as Thorncross, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How the day works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. Late-September weddings in Thorncross see the sun go down at about 7:10pm, which can put the evening food just after dusk. In late May it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- Together we choose a taco bar, evening food or both, and we send a quote.
- We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve on cue, around speeches and photos.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Thorncross
Will you travel to a small place like Thorncross?
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.
We are having a ceremony at St. Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you work with our venue?

Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
