Mexican catering in Swallowfield, from our truck or trailer
Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food. It works well for school fairs and fundraisers and engagement celebrations, serving burrito bowls, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
In a rural place like Swallowfield, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Swallowfield: venues, access and local tips

From the centre of Swallowfield to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote.

For a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of All Saints, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Close to Swallowfield are historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (2.6 miles south-west). Estates and historic houses tend to set their own rules for caterers, so find out what yours allows first.

Streets in the area include The Street, Hornbeams and Fieldfare Court, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

What affects the price in Swallowfield
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- How many guests we’re serving
- The length of service
- What the venue already provides
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
These details help us quote quickly:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- The date and rough timings
- A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
- What you’d like on the menu
To get a price, just tell us about it on our contact page. Give us the details of your event, and we’ll put together a menu and price.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Count children separately
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
Rain doesn’t stop us serving from the truck or trailer, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
Organising for someone else?
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work. What matters most:
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we offer
- Burrito bowls
- Build-your-own taco bar
- Quesadillas

Who books Mexican catering in Swallowfield?
It handles mixed diets without fuss, because guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Vegans and vegetarians eat as well as anyone else.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
- Festivals, fairs and markets
- Christenings and family parties
- Birthday parties
- Fundraisers and school events
A gathering in Swallowfield Meadow would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early.

Common questions in Swallowfield
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of All Saints?
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’ll check the access.
Do you cater in villages like Swallowfield?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you come to Swallowfield?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Swallowfield and the rest of West Berkshire. To check your date, tell us about it on our contact page.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including West Berkshire. Find your area.
Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Winter evenings in Swallowfield close in by about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
