Mexican catering in Coldharbour, from our truck or trailer
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. It works well for fundraisers and school events and summer garden parties, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a London neighbourhood like Coldharbour, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. 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, Coldharbour is inside the ULEZ. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Common questions in Coldharbour
Where would you park in Coldharbour?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Is it possible to have you in Mudchute Park and Farm?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
What food do you serve?
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 do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you will get a quote for your event.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Mention any other caterers or courses
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
Add our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
For planners, venues and organisers
Organising a club, school or community event in Coldharbour? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will let you know if it is a good fit.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
In Coldharbour, 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
