Mexican catering in Addiscombe, from our truck or trailer
We plan each menu with the client, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. For retirement and leaving parties and fundraisers and school events, we can serve tacos, burrito bowls and burritos and more.
In Addiscombe, a courtyard, a venue forecourt or a garden with drive access can work well. If the garden is only reached through the house, a spot on the drive or the street may work, with permission. Tell us about the route in. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

How it compares
With a barbecue, someone usually ends up stuck at the grill. Book us and the cooking happens in our food truck or trailer. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Addiscombe: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at St Mildred's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What about parking in Addiscombe?
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.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We quote for each event, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Do you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, though guests need a covered place to eat.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we will park.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can you serve drinks as well?
We can. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. We will go through the licensing with you.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Perfect for your event in Addiscombe
You don’t need a kitchen, so it works in gardens, fields and grounds without catering facilities.
We cater all kinds of occasions in Addiscombe and nearby. Popular bookings include:
- Festivals, fairs and markets
- Birthday parties
- Weddings and evening receptions
- Garden parties
For a fête or sports day at a school such as Oasis Academy Shirley Park, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.

Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Tell us what other food is being served
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
What’s on the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Guacamole and salsas, freshly made.
Burritos and burrito bowls
A big flour tortilla wrapped round rice, beans, a filling and toppings, or served as a bowl instead.
What happens on the day
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Evenings in Addiscombe stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. Festoon lights or floodlights help once it gets dark.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
Ask for a quote
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
