What Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The length of service
- How many staff you need
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- 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. Your quote sets it all out.

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field

What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Permission from the venue or landowner
In Farthing Street, 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
What we offer
- Quesadillas
- Tacos
- Build-your-own taco bar
- Burritos
- Loaded nachos
- Burrito bowls

Is parking a problem for events in Farthing Street?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Dietary needs and planning tips

- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
If timings change on the day, tell us and we’ll adjust.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter or as a late snack.

Comparing your options
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.
