Mexican catering for Isle of Dogs events

Mexican catering in Isle of Dogs, served fresh

Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. It works well for fairs and festivals and fundraisers and school events, with burritos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.

Events in Isle of Dogs 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Working with your venue

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.

How the day works

We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. Daylight in Isle of Dogs runs to about 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.

  1. Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
  2. Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
  3. Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
  4. We serve hot food from our food truck or trailer at the agreed time.
  5. When you are done, we pack away.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Perfect for your event in Isle of Dogs

It is colourful, generous food that suits a relaxed event.

A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Common bookings include:

  • Fairs and festivals
  • Company summer parties
  • Weddings and evening receptions
  • Anniversaries and engagements

When the service is at a church such as Church of St Nicholas, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.

What your quote should include

  • The caterer’s food hygiene rating
  • Space, access, power and water needs
  • A clear list of what’s included
  • Allergen information for each dish

Questions to ask before booking

Where the truck can go in Isle of Dogs

We will be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
  • A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book

Isle of Dogs is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.

On the menu in Isle of Dogs

  • Build-your-own taco bar
  • Tacos
  • Burritos
  • Quesadillas
  • Loaded nachos
  • Burrito bowls

DIY taco night or a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:

  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Have a covered area ready in case of rain
  • Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
  • Collect dietary needs when guests reply

We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.

Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?

Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

Isle of Dogs questions

What about parking in Isle of Dogs?

It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Could you serve in Mudchute Park and Farm?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

What food and drinks do you offer?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.

Do you serve in the rain?

We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.

Do you cater for big events?

That depends on the event. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we will plan around them.

We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
