About our Mexican catering in Kings Cross

Planning taco catering for an event in Kings Cross? Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. Burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas can sit alongside them. At charity and school events and engagement and anniversary parties, we can serve tacos, burritos and loaded nachos.

Events in Kings Cross 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. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Working with your venue

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

Events we cater in Kings Cross

Every order goes out hot, rather than sitting out on a buffet table.

We can help if you are planning any of the following:

  • Leaving dos and retirement parties
  • Wedding breakfasts and evening food
  • Engagement and anniversary parties
  • Summer garden parties

Thinking of an event in Lewis Cubitt Park? Public parks normally need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first.

What your quote should include

  • VAT, if it applies
  • Space, access, power and water needs
  • The caterer’s food hygiene rating
  • When payment is due

How to compare caterers

Should I do it myself?

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Comparing your options

Platters dropped off in the morning are easy but forgettable. Hot food served from a truck feels like part of the event. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

What you get with us

  • Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
  • Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
  • Fast service, even with a queue
  • A plan agreed before the day

  • How many staff you need
  • What’s on the menu

The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.

Kings Cross questions

Is parking a problem for events in Kings Cross?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Which station is closest to Kings Cross?

Guests can use London Kings Cross station, which is right in Kings Cross.

Can you cater in a back garden?

Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

How is the food prepared?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.

Do you have dairy-free options?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

Are plates and napkins included?

Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.

Planning for every diet

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

  • Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
  • Tell us how many children are coming

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

Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar.

How it works

Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Daylight in Kings Cross 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. First, send us a few details about your event.
  2. You get a sample menu and a quote.
  3. Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
  4. We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
  5. We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.

How to prepare

  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
  • Find out what power and water are available
