Mexican catering in Long Ditton, from our food truck or trailer
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. At fairs and festivals and charity and school events, we can serve loaded nachos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.
Events in Long Ditton 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 plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

How we price Mexican catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Whether you need disposables
- How long we’re needed on site
- How many guests we’re serving
- Your choice of food and drinks
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Expected numbers
- What power and water the site has
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Where the event is
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
Why choose Mexican catering in Long Ditton?
Pizza and burger vans are familiar choices. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, yet it is still food most guests know and like. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

Planners, venues and businesses
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.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Space for guests to queue
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
In Long Ditton, 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 picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Long Ditton
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Which station should guests use for Long Ditton?
The closest is Surbiton station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we will take it from there.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
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. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
