Mexican catering in Gipsy Hill, served fresh
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case, so let us know how many you expect. For company summer parties and birthday parties, we can serve tacos, burritos and burrito bowls.
Around Gipsy Hill, parking and loading are the main things to plan for a truck or trailer. 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, Gipsy Hill included, is inside the ULEZ. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- Space for guests to queue
As a London location, Gipsy Hill is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Food, drinks or both
- What the venue already provides
- How many staff you need
- How long we’re needed on site
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- A picture of where we’d park
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Any dietary needs and allergies
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

Questions from Gipsy Hill
Is it possible to have you in Long Meadow?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
What about parking in Gipsy Hill?
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.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please 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, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. 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.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you do a drinks bar?
We can. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Give us separate numbers for children
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so everything goes out hot.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
What happens on the day
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Around midsummer it stays light in Gipsy Hill until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
