Mexican catering near Loxford
Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. Around midsummer it stays light in Loxford until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches

Mexican catering in Loxford, from our food truck or trailer
We bring our food truck or trailer to events in and around Loxford: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding. On the menu are a build-your-own taco bar, burrito bowls and burritos, which works well for school fairs and fundraisers and garden parties.
Around Loxford, parking and loading are the main things to plan for a truck or trailer. Narrow streets, permit bays and yellow lines all affect where we can stop, so tell us about a driveway, a courtyard or whether a parking suspension is needed when you ask for a quote. Like all of Greater London, Loxford is inside the ULEZ. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Where the truck can go in Loxford
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
In Loxford, 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.

Loxford questions
What’s the nearest station to Loxford for guests?
Guests can use Barking station, about 0.6 miles south of Loxford.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Luke's Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
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 photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can you come to a private house?
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 will advise.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
Do you come to Loxford?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Loxford and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Can you set up at our venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we’ll confirm what we need. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To get it right:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch, and guests are welcome to ask before ordering.
