Mexican catering in Oval, from our truck or trailer

Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Oval and nearby: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, as long as there’s safe access. It works well for retirement and leaving parties and wedding breakfasts and evening food, serving loaded nachos, burrito bowls and burritos.

From a hired hall to a shared courtyard, events in Oval come in all shapes. Let us know where the truck or trailer can stop and about any narrow entrances. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Can I do a taco night myself?

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

What Mexican catering costs

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Travel, parking and access
  • How many staff you need
  • Food, drinks or both
  • Guest numbers

Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Where the event is
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • What you’d like on the menu
  • Your date and when you want service to start

It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Occasions we cater for in Oval

  • School fairs and fundraisers
  • Birthday parties
  • Leaving parties
  • Family gatherings and christenings

With the A203 and A3204 nearby, getting the truck or trailer to Oval is straightforward.

Questions to ask before you book

Where the truck can go in Oval

We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
  • Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
  • Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking

In Oval, 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.

Popular choices

  • Burrito bowls
  • Burritos
  • Tacos
  • Loaded nachos
  • Quesadillas
  • Build-your-own taco bar

Working with your venue

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Step by step

Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Evenings in Oval stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. Festoon lights or floodlights help once it gets dark.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and venue.
  2. Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
  3. We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
  4. Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
  5. After the last serving, we clear our area.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

How it compares

Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Why us?

  • Allergen information for everything we serve
  • Events in Oval and across Greater London
  • A menu agreed with you
  • Quick, friendly service from the hatch

Oval questions

Is parking a problem for events in Oval?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Is it possible to have you in Vauxhall Park?

It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.

Do you cover Oval?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Oval is within our area and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, use our quote form.

What food and drinks do you offer?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.

Do you provide allergen information for each dish?

Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give 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.

Can you serve in the rain?

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Can you cater in a back garden?

Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.

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.
