Mexican catering in Putney Vale, served fresh
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: we park our truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. You don’t need a kitchen at the venue. For anniversaries and engagements and family gatherings and christenings, we’ll put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and burrito bowls.
In Putney Vale, events range from courtyards to hired halls. Let us know where the truck or trailer can stop, and about any height barriers or narrow entrances. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

How we price Mexican catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Whether you need disposables
- The length of service
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Staff for serving and the bar
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What we need to know
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Diets and allergies you know about
- A picture of where we’d park
- What you’d like on the menu
To get a price, just send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Comparing your options
With a barbecue, someone normally ends up stuck at the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our food truck or trailer. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:

- Collect dietary needs when guests reply

- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
Common questions in Putney Vale
Which station is closest to Putney Vale?
Raynes Park station, about 2 miles south-east of the centre.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John the Baptist?
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’ll check the access.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Organising for someone else?
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
In Putney Vale, 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.
