Mexican catering in Clerkenwell, from our truck or trailer
Need taco catering in Clerkenwell? We bring our food truck or trailer to events in and around Clerkenwell: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, as long as there is safe access. Popular choices include burritos, burrito bowls and loaded nachos, which works well for staff parties and office lunches and festivals, fairs and markets.
Around Clerkenwell, parking and loading are the main things to plan for a truck or trailer. 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. All of Greater London, Clerkenwell included, is inside the ULEZ. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

Why choose Mexican catering in Clerkenwell?
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.

Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Count children separately
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
Rain doesn’t stop us serving from the truck or trailer, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
London streets around Clerkenwell 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 photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
