Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so everything goes out hot.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
Mexican catering in Cranham, served fresh
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. It works well for wedding breakfasts and evening food and office lunches and team days, serving loaded nachos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.
From a hired hall to a shared courtyard, events in Cranham come in all shapes. Tell us how close we can park, and about any height barriers or narrow entrances. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Common questions in Cranham
Is it possible to have you in St. Andrew's Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Which station is closest to Cranham?
The closest is Upminster station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
How spicy is the food?
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.
What if it rains?
We can still serve in the rain. Plan a marquee, gazebo or indoor space for guests to eat in.

Yes, we do. Cranham is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

Catering an event in Cranham
Cranham is about 2 miles east of Hornchurch, in Greater London. Anywhere in RM14, we can serve your guests, as long as there’s access. Cranham is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we can bring Mexican catering. We cater right across the region, from Cranham to London (about 16 miles away).
Close to Cranham are historic houses such as Hare Hall (3 miles north-west) and Rainham Hall (4.5 miles south-west). Estates and historic houses tend to set their own rules for caterers, so find out what yours allows first. A gathering in St. Andrew's Park would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early.
This part of Greater London takes in RM14. Whether your event is on Avon Road, Moor Lane and Front Lane or anywhere nearby, we’ll plan where to park and serve. We also serve at events in Upminster (1 mile west), Puddle Dock (1 mile east), Upminster Bridge (1 mile west), North Ockendon (2 miles south-east) and Emerson Park (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Shoreditch (15 miles west), Walthamstow (13 miles west), Hoxton (15 miles west), Whitechapel (15 miles west), Orpington (14 miles south-west) and Plaistow (11 miles west).
Well-known places in the area include Hornchurch Urban District (2.2 miles west) and St George's Hospital (2.4 miles south-west). Open spaces near Cranham include Cranham Brickfields.
- Schools near Cranham include The James Oglethorpe Primary School (under half a mile south)
- Pubs nearby include The Crumpled Horn pub (1 mile south-west)
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- What’s on the menu
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Guest numbers
- Whether you need disposables
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

These details help us quote quickly:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- How we drive in and where we can park

Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, send us your details through our quote form.

About the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your event, with lime and fresh toppings.
Build-your-own taco bar
The taco bar keeps things sociable, and guests with different diets can choose what suits them, with every dish labelled.
Before you choose a spot
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
In Cranham, 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.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
What happens on the day
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. A December event in Cranham will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Give us your final numbers and diets
How to get a price
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, send a quick message through our quote form.
