How our Mexican catering works in Old Dean
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. For family celebrations and milestone birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, burrito bowls and tacos.
In and around Old Dean, gardens and local halls are common choices. If access is tight or the ground is soft, we will plan around it. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are organising for someone else, 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.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Old Dean? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
Old Dean: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at St Martin's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not 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.
Is Old Dean close to London?
It is about 29 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
What if it rains?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, though guests need a covered place to eat.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
What’s on the menu
Burritos and burrito bowls
A burrito is a meal in one. Bowls suit guests who want to skip the tortilla.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms are agreed with you.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Count children separately
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests build their own.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
Who books Mexican catering in Old Dean?
Mexican street food suits almost any crowd: it’s familiar, filling and easy to eat standing up or sitting down.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Common bookings include:
- Festivals, fairs and markets
- Leaving dos and retirement parties
- Garden get-togethers
- Charity and school events
Thinking of an event in Poors Allotment? Public parks normally need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first.
What your quote should include
- Plates and napkins, or nothing at all
- Payment terms and deposit
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether travel is included
Comparing your options
A drop-off platter is easy, but nobody remembers it. Live service from a truck or trailer gives guests hot food and something to talk about. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.
Why book with us
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Access, space and power checked in advance

The process

- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- 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 food truck or trailer.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
