How our Mexican catering works in Kennington
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. It works well for festivals, fairs and markets and garden get-togethers, serving loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and tacos.
Events in Kennington are often in courtyards, office forecourts, hired venues and gardens with side access. London gardens are often reached only through the house, so the truck or trailer may need to stay on a drive or the street, with permission. Tell us about the route in. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To get it right:
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
Taco catering in Kennington: local tips

By rail: Kennington has its own station, Vauxhall station. A gathering in Vauxhall Park would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early.
Mexican catering in SW8, SW1P and SE11 is planned around your venue and access. We can cater an event on streets such as Kay Road, Lett Road and Rita Road. You’ll find Kennington on the A203 and A3204, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. We also serve at events in Oval (1 mile north), South Lambeth (1 mile south-west), Little Portugal (1 mile south), North Brixton (1 mile south-east) and Vauxhall (1 mile north). Within a short drive, we also cover City of Westminster (3 miles north-west), Marylebone (3 miles north-west), Kensington (4 miles west), St Pancras (3 miles north), Shoreditch (4 miles north-east) and Walthamstow (8 miles north-east).
Other landmarks nearby include Type Museum (0.5 miles south) and The Gordon Hospital (1 mile north-west). Not far away are Bellenden Road Nature Garden and Ludgate Hill.
- Nearby schools include Archbishop Tenison's Church of England School (less than half a mile north-east) and St Peter's School (within half a mile north)
- Local pubs include Crown and Thistle pub (under half a mile south-west)
- Local facilities include Lambeth Palace Library (1.1 miles north) and City and Liberty of Westminster (1.3 miles north)

Events we cater in Kennington
Mixed diets are easy to plan for, because guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Vegans and vegetarians eat as well as anyone else.
A truck or trailer suits almost any gathering. In Kennington, you could book us for occasions like:
- Christenings and family parties
- Office lunches and team days
- Fairs and festivals
- Engagement and anniversary parties
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like St Stephen's Church of England Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the price includes VAT
- The caterer’s food hygiene rating
- Any travel, parking or access charges
- What the caterer needs from your venue
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
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. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What you get with us
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Quoted for your event
- We cover Kennington and the whole of Greater London
- Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
Where the truck can go in Kennington
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Space for guests to queue
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
In Kennington, 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 picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Questions from Kennington
We’re having a ceremony at Calvary Church of God in Christ: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station is closest to Kennington?
Kennington has its own station: Vauxhall station.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Can we add a bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we will check that with you.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
How much will it cost?
Every event is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
