Wedding Mexican catering for Westbere events
About our wedding Mexican catering in Westbere
We can cater the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. One option is a taco bar for the main meal and tacos or nachos later on. On the menu are a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, burrito bowls and quesadillas, which works well for farm and barn venues and gatherings the day after a wedding.
Rural weddings around Westbere 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. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Space for guests to queue
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
On the menu in Westbere
- Guacamole and salsas
- Taco bar wedding breakfast
- Margarita bar
- Nachos to share
- Burritos and bowls
- Evening tacos
The process
Here’s how the day generally runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. Golden-hour photos in Westbere at midsummer come around 9:15pm, so we can time the evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September.
- We start by checking your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm the plan with your venue.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Give us your final numbers and diets

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Westbere questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of All Saints?
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 cater at coastal events near Westbere?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Plan a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Count day and evening guests separately
- Check your date with us early
- Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
The truck or trailer can be placed where guests can see it, which makes a good photo.
Quesadillas go down well with children at the wedding breakfast.
Is wedding Mexican catering right for your wedding?
A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian and vegan guests. Separate fillings and toppings cover every diet. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
