Mexican catering near Mitcham
How our Mexican catering works in Mitcham
We bring our food truck or trailer to events in and around Mitcham: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, as long as there is safe access. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and burritos, which works well for festivals, fairs and markets and leaving dos and retirement parties.
In Mitcham, a courtyard, a venue forecourt or a garden with drive access can work well. 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. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

The process
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. Around midsummer it stays light in Mitcham until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Tell us when you want service to start
How to get a price

Taco catering in Mitcham: local tips

Crisp tortilla chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole, made for sharing.
Mitcham: your questions answered
Where would you park in Mitcham?
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 our guests after a service at St. Mark's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we cannot guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, cook to order and serve tacos, burritos and more from the hatch. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
What can we choose from?
Tacos and taco bars, plus burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. Our sample menu has more detail.
Organising for someone else?
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Send allergy details to us in writing
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so everything goes out hot.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter.
Occasions we cater for in Mitcham
A food truck gives guests somewhere to gather, and the smell of warm tortillas brings people over.
Whatever the occasion, our truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We’re happy to cater:
- Birthday parties
- Fundraisers and school events
- Festivals, fairs and markets
- Leaving parties
Parks such as Cranmer Green typically need the owner’s permission for vehicles and catering, so ask before you plan an event there.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the service runs
- The wet-weather plan
- A clear list of what’s included
- Allergen information for each dish
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch

- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
In Mitcham, 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.
