North Finchley questions
Which station is closest to North Finchley?
New Southgate station, about 1.4 miles east of the centre.
Is it possible to have you in Friary Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.

What are your prices?
There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Send your details and you will get a quote for your event.
Do you do a drinks bar?
Yes. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We park our truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Send allergy details to us in writing
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves.
Quesadillas go down well with children.
Popular choices
Salsas and guacamole
Every taco needs salsa and guacamole, and guests add as much as they like.
Build-your-own taco bar
A serving table of fillings, salsas and toppings, with tortillas kept warm. Everyone builds their own.
What Mexican catering costs
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you need disposables
- Guest numbers
- What’s on the menu
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. For a quote, use our quote form.
What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
In North Finchley, 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.

We serve in all 764 towns and villages in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from North Finchley to London (about 9 miles away).
Reaching North Finchley by road is easy for us, thanks to the A1000. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Sacks Morasha Jewish Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.
Mexican catering in N12, N20 and N11 is planned around your venue and access and your guests. From High Road, Lodge Lane and Percy Road or anywhere nearby, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access. You will find North Finchley on the A1000, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Woodside Park (1 mile west), Oakleigh Park (1 mile north), Whetstone (1 mile north), Friern Barnet (1 mile east) and Finchley (1 mile south). Further out, we also cater in London (9 miles south-east), City of Westminster (7 miles south), Marylebone (7 miles south), Kensington (8 miles south), St Pancras (7 miles south) and Shoreditch (8 miles south-east).

How it compares
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
