Mexican catering in Norwood New Town, served fresh
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. It suits anniversaries and engagements and christenings and family parties, with fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
Around Norwood New Town, parking and loading are the main things to plan for a truck or trailer. Narrow streets and permit bays decide where we can stop, so let us know about off-street space, or whether the council will need to suspend a parking bay. Like all of Greater London, Norwood New Town is inside the ULEZ. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

The process
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. A December event in Norwood New Town will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Before the day, we agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our truck or trailer.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
How to prepare
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Let us know the timings for the day

We serve in 764 places in Greater London, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Rockmount Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Nearby historic houses include Kingswood House (0.8 miles north-east) and Addington Palace (4.9 miles south-east).

Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
London streets around Norwood New Town can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

Questions from Norwood New Town
Can you cater a reception after a service at New Covenant Church-Equipping People?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Where would you park in Norwood New Town?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That 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’ll advise.
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.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
How many guests can you cater for?
It depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will take it from there.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
