How our Mexican catering works in Crofton
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It works well for family gatherings and christenings and garden get-togethers, serving a build-your-own taco bar, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a London neighbourhood like Crofton, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. Narrow streets and permit bays decide 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, Crofton included, is inside the ULEZ. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

Where the truck can go in Crofton
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
As a London location, Crofton is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Crofton questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Jubilee Country 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.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We quote for each event, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
The menu, item by item
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are simple and comforting.
Loaded nachos
Nachos are easy sharing food. Dairy-free versions can be planned.
Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Send allergy details to us in writing
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
