Mexican catering in Eltham, served fresh
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. It works well for christenings and family parties and leaving parties, serving burritos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.
Events in Eltham are often in courtyards, office forecourts, hired venues and gardens with side access. If the garden is only reached through the house, a spot on the drive or the street may work, with permission. Send us a photo of the access. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

The process
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. From late May to late September, sunset in Eltham moves from about 8:50pm to 7:05pm. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
How to get a price
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so everything goes out hot.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.

Eltham: venues, access and local tips
Eltham is about 7 miles west of Dartford, in Greater London. From the centre of Eltham to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Eltham is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we can bring Mexican catering. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Eltham to London (8 miles away).
For a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of Holy Trinity, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. With the A20 and B263 nearby, getting the truck or trailer to Eltham is straightforward.
We cover events in every part of the SE9, SE12, DA15 and BR7 postcode area. Whether your event is on Eltham High Street, Tarnwood Park and Elmslie Court or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. Eltham is on the A20 and B263, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. We also serve at events in Middle Park (1 mile west), New Eltham (1 mile south-east), Well Hall (1 mile north), Coldharbour (1 mile south) and Avery Hill (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also cater in London (8 miles north-west), City of Westminster (10 miles north-west), Marylebone (10 miles north-west), Kensington (12 miles west), St Pancras (9 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (8 miles north-west).
Nearby you will also find Eltham Community Hospital (within half a mile north) and Metropolitan Police Museum (2.1 miles east). The countryside around Eltham includes The Tarn and Summer Hill.
- Nearby schools include Eltham Church of England Primary School (0.5 miles north)
- Pubs nearby include The Greyhound Public House (within half a mile north)
Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
In Eltham, 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions in Eltham
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is parking a problem for events in Eltham?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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, with allergen information for every dish.
