Mexican catering for your event in East End of London
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case, so tell us your numbers. At staff parties and office lunches and retirement and leaving parties, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and quesadillas.
Events in East End of London are often in courtyards, office forecourts, hired venues and gardens with side access. 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. Tell us about the route in. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

East End of London: your questions answered
Could you serve in Stepney Green 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.
What’s the nearest station to East End of London for guests?
Shadwell station, in East End of London itself.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
How does your Mexican catering work?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Do you serve in the rain?
We can still serve in the rain. Have somewhere covered ready for guests.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we cannot guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.

Taco catering in East End of London: local tips
East End of London is about 1 mile east of Whitechapel, in Greater London. Tell us where your event in East End of London will be, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up. We cater in 764 places in Greater London.
A school such as St Mary and St Michael Primary School running a summer fair or fundraiser could book a taco truck. Guests leaving a church like Church of St Mary after a christening could walk over to a nearby garden where the tacos are ready.

How it compares
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Planning help
DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away quietly.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
