How our Mexican catering works in Aldwych
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. For christenings and family parties and leaving parties, we will put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and burrito bowls for your guests.
Events in Aldwych 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. Tell us about the route in. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. From late May to late September, sunset in Aldwych moves from about 8:50pm to 7:05pm. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
Getting a price
Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests help themselves.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar.

Aldwych questions
What about parking in Aldwych?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
We are having a ceremony at St Mary le Strand: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Can you serve drinks as well?
Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we’ll check that with you.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Space for guests to queue
Aldwych is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Should I do it myself?

Comparing your options
Pizza and burger vans are familiar choices. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, while still being easy food most people enjoy. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
