Mexican catering for your event in Barnehurst
Planning taco catering for an event in Barnehurst? We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. It works well for markets and community events and weddings, day or evening, serving burrito bowls, quesadillas and tacos.
In Barnehurst, 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. Send us a picture of the access. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed

- Give us separate numbers for children
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar.
Barnehurst: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Paulinus?
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 will check the access.
Could you serve in Braeburn Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
Every event is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Do you do a drinks bar?
Yes. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. We’ll check the licensing with you.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
What affects the price in Barnehurst
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Travel, parking and access
- What the venue already provides
- How many guests we’re serving
- What’s on the menu
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- The address or venue name
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- A picture of where we’d park
- Expected numbers

Step by step
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. From late May to late September, sunset in Barnehurst moves from about 8:50pm to 7:05pm. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- 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.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
Getting a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

Space, access and the venue
We will be honest if a space won’t work. What matters most:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
In Barnehurst, 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 you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
