How our corporate Mexican catering works in Derry Downs
A food truck turns lunch into part of the event. On the menu are nachos to share, burritos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it’s a good fit for training days and client and customer events.
In Derry Downs, work lunches are often short, so we plan for quick service. Let us know about access, barriers and loading, and whether a parking suspension is needed. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Common questions in Derry Downs
Is parking a problem for events in Derry Downs?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Which station is closest to Derry Downs?
Guests can use St Mary Cray station, about 0.8 miles north-west of Derry Downs.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you do a bar for work events?
Our drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will go through the licensing with you before the day.
Do you come to Derry Downs?
We do. We serve at events in Derry Downs and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Do you cater for vegans and gluten-free staff?
We plan carefully and keep options separate. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to contact us first.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Spread lunch times across departments
- Let us know how long people have to eat
- Think about shade and seating
- Ensure there are alcohol-free drinks
The area around the truck or trailer stays tidy.
Aguas frescas and soft drinks for team days.
How we price corporate Mexican catering
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Guest numbers
- How long we are needed on site
- What’s on the menu
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- What power and water the site has
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

Other catering in Derry Downs
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Space for guests to queue
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
As a London location, Derry Downs is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
