FAQs for Blackheath
What’s the nearest station to Blackheath for guests?
Guests can use Blackheath station, which is right in Blackheath.
Is parking a problem for events in Blackheath?
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.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will talk licensing through with you.
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 cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What can we choose from?
We agree the menu with each client, with fillings such as chicken tinga, carnitas or black beans. The sample menu shows the options.
Do you cater in Blackheath?
We do. We serve at events in Blackheath and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Mexican catering in Blackheath, from our food truck or trailer
We plan each menu with the client, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. For weddings and evening receptions and leaving dos and retirement parties, we can serve quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
In Blackheath, 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 photo of the access. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Mexican catering or something else?
A drop-off platter is easy, but nobody remembers it. Hot food served from a truck feels like part of the event. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Planning help
Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
The menu, item by item
Salsas and guacamole
Salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your event.
Build-your-own taco bar

How we price Mexican catering
These are the factors that matter most:
- What’s on the menu
- Whether you need disposables
- Serving staff
- Timings and hours
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.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- What power and water the site has
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The address or venue name
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Count children separately
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so everything goes out hot.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.

- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
In Blackheath, 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.
