Mexican catering in Aldborough Hatch, served fresh
Looking for taco catering in Aldborough Hatch? Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats. At anniversaries and engagements and big birthday celebrations, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, a build-your-own taco bar and tacos.
Events in Aldborough Hatch are often in courtyards, office forecourts, hired venues and gardens with side access. London gardens are often reached only through the house, so the truck or trailer may need to stay on a drive or the street, with permission. Send us a photo of the access. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Common questions in Aldborough Hatch
Is it possible to have you in Fairlop Waters?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Peter: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What’s on the menu
Burritos and burrito bowls
A big flour tortilla wrapped round rice, beans, a filling and toppings, or served as a bowl instead.
Loaded nachos
Loaded nachos are perfect for sharing. We can plan a dairy-free version.

How it compares

Planning for every diet
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.

Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
How the day works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. In Aldborough Hatch, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Give us your final numbers and diets
How to get a price
Send us the date, your venue or IG2 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. To get started, use our quote form.

- The deadline for final numbers

Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
In Aldborough Hatch, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
