How our Mexican catering works in Hampstead
Our truck and trailer service tends to suit around 50 to 400 guests. Larger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case, so tell us your numbers. It suits weddings and evening receptions and garden get-togethers, with quesadillas, burritos and burrito bowls.
Events in Hampstead 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.

How it compares
With a barbecue, someone normally ends up stuck at the grill. Book us and the cooking happens in our truck or trailer. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Hampstead questions
Is parking a problem for events in Hampstead?
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.
Could you serve in Kilburn Grange Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
Mexican catering around Hampstead
Hampstead is about 3 miles north-west of City of Westminster, in Greater London. We serve at events in gardens, halls and venues around Hampstead. Hampstead is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover.
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Fitzjohn's Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. For a christening or wedding at a church such as St John-at-Hampstead church, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
We serve at events all over NW3, NW6, NW11 and N2 and the streets around it. From Hampstead High Street, New End Square and The Mount Square or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. You’ll find Hampstead on the A1 and A502, which makes it straightforward to bring the truck or trailer. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Greenhill (1 mile north-east), West Hampstead (1 mile west), Fortune Green (1 mile west), Vale of Health (1 mile north) and South Hampstead (1 mile south). Within a short drive, we also cover London (5 miles south-east), City of Westminster (3 miles south-east), Marylebone (3 miles south-east), Kensington (4 miles south), St Pancras (3 miles south-east) and Shoreditch (5 miles south-east). Being one of Greater London’s larger places, Hampstead has plenty of venues and spaces for events, though town-centre access for a truck or trailer needs planning.
Well-known places in the area include New End Hospital (within half a mile north) and O2 Centre (under half a mile south). Open spaces near Hampstead include Belsize Wood and The Long Water.
- Schools near Hampstead include St Anthony's Preparatory School (under half a mile east) and South Hampstead High School (0.5 miles south)
- Nearby, you will find King William IV Public House (within half a mile north-east)
- Other local spots include Frognal and Fitzjohns (less than half a mile north-west) and Cecil Sharp House (1.7 miles south-east)
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Step by step
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. From late May to late September, sunset in Hampstead moves from about 8:55pm to 7:05pm. Let us know if service will run after dark, and we’ll talk about lighting.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Give us your final numbers and diets

- Your date and when you want service to start
- A picture of where we’d park
- Roughly how many adults and children
- The venue or postcode

Where the truck can go in Hampstead
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
In Hampstead, 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’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

We arrive early enough to set up calmly. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
