Mexican catering near Richmond

Before you choose a spot

Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:

  • A spot for a taco-bar serving table
  • Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
  • Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on

As a London location, Richmond is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

On the menu in Richmond

Mexican catering in Richmond, from our truck or trailer

Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so each plate is exactly how they like it. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and burrito bowls, which works well for weddings and evening receptions and anniversaries and engagements.

Events in Richmond are often in courtyards, office forecourts, hired venues and gardens with side access. If the garden is only reached through the house, a spot on the drive or the street may work, with permission. Send us a picture of the access. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Richmond

Can you cater a reception after a service at The Vineyard Church?

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.

Which station is closest to Richmond?

Guests can use Richmond station, about 0.5 miles north of Richmond.

What can we choose from?

Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. See our sample menu.

Can you keep it mild?

We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

How much space 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.

How much is a food truck for an event?

We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Do you cater in Richmond?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Richmond is within our area and the rest of Greater London. To check your date, tell us about it on our contact page.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Guest numbers
  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • The menu you choose
  • Whether you need disposables

Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

What we need to know

To speed things up, tell us:

  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • The address or venue name
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • A picture of where we’d park

Send us the date, your venue or TW9 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just use our quote form.

Planning for every diet

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

  • Think about cover for guests in wet weather
  • Collect dietary needs when guests reply
  • Ensure the menu has a vegan option
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event

Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so it’s hot when it reaches them.

Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.

How the day works

We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Planning an evening event in Richmond? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.

  1. It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
  2. You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
  3. Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
  4. On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
  5. When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.

Preparing for the day

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
  • Let us know the timings for the day

Planning help

Is Mexican catering right for your event?

A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

For event organisers in Richmond

Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Can I do a taco night myself?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. 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 anything containing allergens.

Who books Mexican catering in Richmond?

A food truck gives guests somewhere to gather, and people drift over as soon as service starts.

Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:

  • Weddings and evening receptions
  • Family celebrations
  • Summer garden parties
  • School fairs and fundraisers

For a christening or wedding at a church such as The Vineyard Church, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
