FAQs for Plaistow
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Mary’s Church?
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 Plaistow?
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.
Do you cater in Plaistow?
Yes, we do. Plaistow is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
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’ll take it from there.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Plaistow.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Whether you need disposables
- Serving staff
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of where we’d park
- Expected numbers
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. When you’re ready, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Catering for every guest
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 how many children are coming
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adjust.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
Working with your venue
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Where the truck can go in Plaistow
If a space is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
London streets around Plaistow 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.

What else we do in Plaistow
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
