tHE fLAVOUR BEHIND THE FIESTA

Cantina Movil launched in 2011 with a single food truck and one big idea: bring authentic Mexican street food to the streets of Sydney, but do it with the kind of quality you’d expect from a restaurant. We didn’t follow a trend — we helped start one.

From our very first service in the Northern Beaches, we knew we were onto something. The lines grew longer, the smiles got wider, and soon we were receiving calls to cater weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, and brand launches. Our food truck wasn’t just a moving kitchen — it was a moving experience

our PHILOSOPHY
We believe food should do more than feed people. It should bring joy, spark connection, and become part of the memory. That’s what we focus on:

  • Authenticity: Our recipes are rooted in traditional Mexican street food, elevated with care.
  • Freshness: We use locally sourced produce and premium ingredients, including select imports from Mexico.
  • Customisation: Every event is unique. We offer dietary flexibility and tailored packages to fit your needs.
  • Service: Our team is friendly, fast, and professional. We bring great vibes along with great food.

Over the years, we’ve served more than 200,000 guests — from celebrity chefs and performers to everyday people celebrating life’s big (and small) moments. And no matter who we’re serving, we treat each guest with the same level of care and attention.

Today, Cantina Movil is proud to be one of Sydney’s go-to catering solutions for anyone who wants more than just a meal. Whether it’s a 30-person garden wedding or a 500-person corporate activation, we bring the same passion, precision, and personality every time.

So if you’re ready to turn your next event into something unforgettable — we’re ready to roll.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
Questions

Before you send your quote request, take a look at the most common things our clients want to know.

What’s the cost per guest?

Our pricing varies depending on the package and event type, but you can expect an average of $20 to $30 per guest. Each package includes generous portions, high-quality ingredients, and full setup and service. We’ll walk you through the options during the quote process so you know exactly what you’re getting — no surprise fees.

What areas do you service?

We cater across the Sydney metropolitan area — If your location is within a 1–2 hour radius of central Sydney, there’s a good chance we can serve you.
All bookings are subject to availability, so reach out early to secure your preferred date and location.

How far in advance should I book?

We recommend booking 2–4 weeks ahead for weekday events. For weekends — especially Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays — we often get booked out 2 to 6 months in advance. The earlier you reach out, the more likely we can secure your preferred date and time.

What happens if it rains?

No worries — rain doesn’t stop the fiesta. We’re equipped to cater at both indoor and outdoor venues, and we’ll work closely with you to adjust the setup as needed. Covered areas, marquees, or access to indoor spaces can help keep the service smooth even in wet weather.

Do you accommodate dietary needs?

Yes, absolutely. Our menu can be tailored to include vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and halal options. Just let us know in advance, and we’ll make sure every guest feels included and well-fed — without sacrificing flavour.

Can I cancel or reschedule my booking?

We don’t offer cancellations, but we do allow you to postpone or reschedule your event with a minimum of 8 weeks’ notice. This helps us stay fair to all clients and keep our schedule running smoothly. We’ll always do our best to accommodate your new date.

Do you offer tastings before events?

We’re working on offering tastings and site visits for larger-scale events. This is especially helpful for weddings, corporate activations, or events with 100+ guests. If you’re planning something big, let us know — we’d love to give you a preview of the flavour.

Do prices include setup and clean-up?

Yes, everything is included in our pricing — food, setup, service team, disposables, and cleanup. Our goal is to make your event seamless and stress-free, so you can focus on your guests, not the logistics.

How long is your standard service time?

Our standard service duration is 2 hours. If your event requires extended service, please let us know in advance — we’ll review availability and let you know if additional time can be arranged.

Do you require electricity or kitchen access?

We do prefer having access to electricity if it’s available at the venue, as it helps power our equipment more efficiently. But if that’s not possible, no problem — we can bring our own generator to ensure everything runs smoothly.
