Mexican catering in Peckham, from our food truck or trailer
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. It works well for garden get-togethers and engagement and anniversary parties, with fresh salsas and guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos.
In Peckham, 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. Send us a photo of the access. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Comparing your options
If you want food that feels relaxed without being basic, a taco bar or a menu of tacos, burritos and nachos is hard to beat. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Why us?
- A menu agreed with you
- Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
- Access, space and power checked in advance

Working with your venue
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
Allergen information is on hand for every dish, so guests can check before they order.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we will set out what we can do in your quote.
Peckham: your questions answered
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Brimmington 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.
Where would you park in Peckham?
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.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We quote for each event, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
What does Mexican catering cost?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you serve drinks as well?
Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we will check that with you.
Events we cater in Peckham
It handles mixed diets without fuss, because guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Vegans and vegetarians eat as well as anyone else.
Whatever the occasion, the serving truck can be a highlight. We are happy to cater:
- Big birthday celebrations
- Family gatherings and christenings
- Wedding breakfasts and evening food
- Fairs and festivals
A gathering in Brimmington Park would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early.

Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
London streets around Peckham 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
