How the day works
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Evenings in Sunnymead stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm. Festoon lights or floodlights help once it gets dark.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.

Common questions in Sunnymead
Is it possible to have you in Oxford University Parks?
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’ll send what they need from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Roman Catholic Church of St Gregory and St Augustine?
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.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
What are your prices?
Every event is quoted for individually, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you cover Sunnymead?
We do. Sunnymead is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

Mexican catering or something else?
A barbecue often means a host tied to the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our food truck or trailer. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
