Your questions about Mexican catering in Anerley
What’s the nearest station to Anerley for guests?
Guests can use Anerley station, which is right in Anerley.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Paul's?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How much does Mexican catering cost in Anerley?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
How does your Mexican catering work?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
What are your prices?
Every event is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
Can we add a bar?
Yes. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will talk licensing through with you.
How our Mexican catering works in Anerley
Mexican street food makes mixed diets simple. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. It suits school fairs and fundraisers and office lunches and team days, with tacos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
In a London neighbourhood like Anerley, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. Narrow streets, permit bays and yellow lines all affect where we can stop, so let us know about off-street space, or whether the council will need to suspend a parking bay. Like all of Greater London, Anerley is inside the ULEZ. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Why choose Mexican catering in Anerley?
You do not need a kitchen, so it works in gardens, fields and grounds without catering facilities.
Whatever the occasion, the serving truck can be a highlight. We’re happy to cater:
- Charity and school events
- Christenings and family parties
- Milestone birthdays
- Office lunches and team days
Parents planning a fundraiser at a school like James Dixon Primary School might find a Mexican street-food truck draws families in.

- Whether VAT is included
- Allergen information for each dish
- What the caterer needs from your venue
Before you choose a spot
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
Anerley 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.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
For planners, venues and organisers
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away, leaving the space as we found it.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter or as a late snack.

How the day works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. In Anerley, 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. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Share the running order, including any speeches
