What happens on the day

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. Winter evenings in Bassett Green close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Send allergy details to us in writing
  • Include at least one vegan filling
  • Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations

Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.

Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.

Organising for someone else?

Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Bassett Green

Do you cater at coastal events near Bassett Green?

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

We’re having a ceremony at St Alban's Church: can you cater afterwards?

Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.

Who clears up?

We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.

Can you cater for special diets?

Yes. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Do you do a drinks bar?

We can. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.

What guest numbers do you cater for?

That depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will plan around them.

Can you run a bar?

Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?

With a barbecue, someone generally ends up stuck at the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our food truck or trailer, so you can enjoy your event. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

  • Quick, friendly service from the hatch
  • A quote that sets out what’s included
  • Set-up planned with you and your venue
  • Served fresh from our truck or trailer

Read our pricing or the cost guide.

Can I do a taco night myself?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Planning the serving area

Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:

  • The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
  • Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
  • A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
