Mexican catering in Netley
Mexican catering for your event in Netley
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too. For big birthday celebrations and weddings, day or evening, we’ll put together a menu of burritos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls and more.
Around Netley, events are often in gardens, fields, local halls or nearby venues. If access is tight or the ground is soft, we will plan around it. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Netley questions
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Edward the Confessor: can you cater afterwards?
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.
What can we choose from?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. Our sample menu has more detail.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
Every event is quoted for individually, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
Yes. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
How many guests can you cater for?
Our service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

Planning a food truck in Netley
Netley is about 3 miles north-east of Hythe, in Hampshire. Events in Netley are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We serve in 683 places in Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages.
For a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Edward the Confessor, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Guests arriving by train will find that Netley station is in Netley itself. With the New Forest National Park about 7 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Netley. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in. Netley is within about 2 miles of the sea, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots usually need permission from the council or landowner.
Mexican catering in SO31 is planned around your venue and access and timings. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Station Road, The Crescent and Hunt Avenue or the roads around them. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Butlocks Heath (1 mile north-east), Hound (1 mile south-east), Weston (1 mile north-west), Old Netley (1 mile north-east) and Lowford (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Winchester (13 miles north), Gosport (10 miles south-east), Eastleigh (6 miles north), Fareham (7 miles east), Horndean (15 miles east) and Totton (8 miles west).

- Schools near Netley include The Hamble School (0.9 miles east) and Grove Park Business and Enterprise College (1 mile north)
- Local pubs include Prince Consort Public House (less than half a mile south-west)
Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Count children separately
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Add our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
