About Mexican catering in Southampton
The menu starts with tacos: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. Burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas can sit alongside them. It suits garden parties and family gatherings and christenings, with burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and quesadillas.
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our food truck or trailer.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.

Planning a food truck in Southampton
There are 3 towns and 4 villages and hamlets in Southampton, so the setting can be anything from Shirley, Regents Park and Townhill Park to a quiet hamlet: access, level ground and a clear plan. 40 of the places we cover in Southampton are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we often plan around the wind at coastal events, and seafront spots need permission and firm ground for the truck or trailer.
Southampton: Historic houses near Southampton include Southampton Tudor House and Garden (1.4 miles south) and Medieval Merchant's House (1.5 miles south). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before booking one. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like Saint Mary's, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal. Planning an evening event in Southampton? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights or floodlights help once it gets dark.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site

About the menu

Why street food works
Food is cooked to order and served hot, instead of waiting on a buffet.
A truck or trailer suits almost any gathering. In Southampton, you could book us for occasions like:
- Company summer parties
- Family gatherings and christenings
- Leaving dos and retirement parties
- Garden get-togethers
Working with your venue
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Your questions about Mexican catering in Southampton
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
How much will it cost?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you will get a quote for your event.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can you keep it mild?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
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.
