Mexican catering in Charing Cross
The process
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. In Charing Cross, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- We serve hot food from our food truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- We pack away when service is over.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Let us know the timings for the day
How to get a price
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote.
Planning help
Mexican catering in Charing Cross, served fresh
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Charing Cross and nearby: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields, wherever we can get in safely. It suits family gatherings and christenings and festivals, fairs and markets, serving burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls.
Around Charing Cross, parking and loading are the main things to plan for a truck or trailer. Narrow streets and permit bays decide where we can stop, so tell us about a driveway, a courtyard or whether a parking suspension is needed when you ask for a quote. Like all of Greater London, Charing Cross is inside the ULEZ. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Why choose Mexican catering in Charing Cross?
Food is cooked to order and served hot, instead of waiting on a buffet.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Common bookings include:
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- Garden get-togethers
- Fundraisers and school events
- Retirement and leaving parties
For a fête or sports day at a school such as Soho Parish CofE Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.

How we price Mexican catering
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- What the venue already provides
- The number of people
- Distance and access to the venue
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Your menu ideas
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many adults and children

Common questions in Charing Cross
Could you serve in Victoria Embankment Gardens?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Martin-in-the-Fields?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as chicken tinga, carnitas or black beans. Take a look at the sample menu.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
How much does Mexican catering cost in Charing Cross?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Contact us for a quote.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Space for guests to queue
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
Charing Cross is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Popular choices

- Burritos
- Tacos

Organising for someone else?
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
What’s on the menu
Build-your-own taco bar
A taco bar is relaxed and sociable, and guests with different diets can choose what suits them, with every dish labelled.
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese inside, cut into wedges.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
