Corporate Mexican catering in Shadwell, served fresh
Food at work events can easily leave people out. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options and allergen information for every dish, so everyone eats together. For training days and winter staff parties, we’ll put together a menu of quesadillas, burritos and nachos to share and more.
In Shadwell, work lunches are often short, so we plan for quick service. Let us know about access, barriers and loading, and whether we’ll need a parking suspension. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Shadwell: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Shadwell?
Shadwell has its own station: Wapping station.
Where would you park in Shadwell?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will go through the licensing with you.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
