Mexican catering in Colindale, served fresh

Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so nobody ends up with something they do not want. For company summer parties and milestone birthdays, we can serve quesadillas, loaded nachos and a build-your-own taco bar for your guests.

In Colindale, events range from courtyards to hired halls. Tell us how close we can park and about any narrow entrances. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Close to Colindale are historic houses such as Heath Hall (3.5 miles east) and Heath House (3.6 miles south-east).

How to compare caterers

Where the truck can go in Colindale

Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
  • Room for a serving table for the taco bar
  • Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking

London streets around Colindale 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.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Colindale

Is it possible to have you in Sunny Hill Park?

It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.

Is parking a problem for events in Colindale?

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.

Can you plan for allergies?

We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.

How much space do you need?

A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

Can you keep it mild?

It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

Can we add a bar?

You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will talk licensing through with you before the day.

Do you serve in the rain?

The truck or trailer serves in the rain, though guests need a covered place to eat.

Prices and what affects them

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • Whether you add a drinks bar or food
  • Guest numbers
  • What the venue already provides
  • Travel, parking and access

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.

Details that help

The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Your menu ideas
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground

How it works

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. In Colindale, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.

  1. First, send us a few details about your event.
  2. We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
  3. Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
  4. We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
  5. We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.

How to prepare

  • Ask the venue about power and water
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
