How our Mexican catering works in Emmbrook
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos and loaded nachos, and it’s a good fit for family celebrations and weddings, day or evening.
For a place the size of Emmbrook, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue hire, and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Let us know about the route to the house. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
On the day, we arrive in good time to park up and get ready. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.

Emmbrook: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Woosehill Community Church?
Yes. The church itself is not 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.
How far is Emmbrook from central London?
It is about 33 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
What’s on the menu?
Tacos and taco bars, plus burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. Our sample menu has more detail.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
