Mexican catering for your event in Shamley Green
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. We serve burritos, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos, which works well for school fairs and fundraisers and garden parties.
In a rural place like Shamley Green, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
What affects the price in Shamley Green
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many guests we are serving
- Whether you need disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- How long we are needed on site
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where the event is
- Expected numbers
- The date and time of the event
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.
FAQs for Shamley Green
Can you cater a reception after a service at Christ Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Is it possible to have you in Cucknell's Wood?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will talk licensing through with you.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Can we add a bar?
We can. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
How it compares
If you want food that feels relaxed without being basic, tacos, burritos and nachos make a strong choice. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.

Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Count children separately
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so it’s hot when it reaches them.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Space, access and the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
