How our Mexican catering works in Alperton
Planning taco catering for an event in Alperton? Every menu is agreed with you, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. At weddings and evening receptions and leaving parties, we can serve quesadillas, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos for your guests.
In Alperton, events range from courtyards to hired halls. Tell us how close we can park, and about any height barriers or narrow entrances. 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.

Alperton: venues, access and local tips
Alperton is about 2 miles north of Ealing, in Greater London. For Mexican catering in Alperton, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Alperton. Alperton is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. We cater right across the region, from Alperton to London (about 9 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as St James Church Alperton, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Alperton Community School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.
We serve at events all over the HA0, UB6 and NW10 postcode area. Streets in the area include Lee Road, Marsh Road and Eagle Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. If your venue is just outside Alperton, we also cover West Twyford (1 mile south-east), Tokyngton (1 mile north-east), Mapesbury (1 mile north-east), Stonebridge Park (1 mile east) and Park Royal (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also cater in London (9 miles east), City of Westminster (7 miles east), Marylebone (7 miles east), Kensington (5 miles south-east), St Pancras (8 miles east) and Shoreditch (10 miles east).

What affects the price in Alperton
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Guest numbers
- How long we’re needed on site
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.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Alperton
Could you serve our guests after a service at St James Church Alperton?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Which station is closest to Alperton?
Guests can use Wembley Central station, about 0.8 miles north of Alperton.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
What if it rains?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, though guests need a covered place to eat.
Do you cater for big events?
It depends on the event. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
The menu, item by item
Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. They come with fresh salsas and toppings.
Loaded nachos
Nachos are easy sharing food, whether as a starter or a late bite. We can plan a dairy-free version.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.

Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Space for guests to queue
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
London streets around Alperton can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
