How our Mexican catering works in South Hinksey
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, and it suits festivals, fairs and markets and family gatherings and christenings.
Somewhere as small as South Hinksey, a garden or field is often the venue. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Your questions about Mexican catering in South Hinksey
Is it possible to have you in Raleigh Park?
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.
Which station is closest to South Hinksey?
The closest is Oxford station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
Do you do a drinks bar?
We can. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. We will go through the licensing with you.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you cover South Hinksey?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and South Hinksey is within our area and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, send a quick message through our quote form.
Can you cater for special diets?
We can. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Tell us what other food is being served
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
