About our Mexican catering in Cockfosters
The menu starts with tacos: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. At family celebrations and anniversaries and engagements, we can serve tacos, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar.
In Cockfosters, a courtyard, a venue forecourt or a garden with drive access can work well. London gardens are often reached only through the house, so the truck or trailer may need to stay on a drive or the street, with permission. Send us a photo of the access. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
In Cockfosters, 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 are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What happens on the day
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Evenings in Cockfosters stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.

Comparing your options
Platters dropped off in the morning are easy but forgettable. Hot food served from a truck feels like part of the event. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Why book with us
- A menu agreed with you
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- A quote that sets out what’s included
Read our pricing and our guide to catering costs.
Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests build their own.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
