Mexican catering in Calcot, from our food truck or trailer
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. It suits leaving parties and engagement and anniversary parties, with a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and burritos.
Around Calcot, events are often in gardens, fields, local halls or nearby venues. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

How it compares
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- Service planned around your numbers
- A menu agreed with you
- Allergen-aware menus

Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Give us separate numbers for children

Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
