Mexican catering for Russell Hill events

Can I do a taco night myself?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

About our Mexican catering in Russell Hill

Our truck and trailer service tends to suit around 50 to 400 guests. Larger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case, so let us know how many you expect. It suits christenings and family parties and weddings, day or evening, serving quesadillas, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.

In a London neighbourhood like Russell Hill, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. Narrow streets, permit bays and yellow lines all affect where we can stop, so tell us about a driveway, a courtyard or whether a parking suspension is needed when you ask for a quote. All of Greater London, Russell Hill included, is inside the ULEZ. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

FAQs for Russell Hill

What’s the nearest station to Russell Hill for guests?

Guests can use Waddon station, about 1 mile north of Russell Hill.

We are having a ceremony at St. Paul's: can you cater afterwards?

Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.

Can you plan for allergies?

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. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.

Where do you cater?

London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Russell Hill.

What if it rains?

Rain doesn’t stop service from the hatch. Have somewhere covered ready for guests.

Is the food suitable for children?

Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.

How spicy is the food?

We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

What is mobile Mexican catering?

Our truck or trailer is a mobile kitchen. We set up at your venue, serve hot food to order and pack down afterwards.

Planning a food truck in Russell Hill

Russell Hill is about 1 mile north of Purley, in Greater London. From the centre of Russell Hill to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Russell Hill is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our nearest city page is London, about 10 miles away.

When the service is at a church such as St. Paul's, the food generally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Wallington Primary Academy, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser.

We cater events across the SM6, CR8 and CR0 postcode area and the streets around it. From Link Lane, Hawker Road and Redwing Road or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access. Close by, we cover events in Roundshaw (1 mile west), Peaks Hill (1 mile south), Bandonhill (1 mile north), Waddon (1 mile north-east) and Purley (1 mile south). Further out, we also cater in London (10 miles north), City of Westminster (11 miles north), Marylebone (11 miles north), Kensington (11 miles north), St Pancras (12 miles north) and Shoreditch (12 miles north).

Nearby you’ll also find County Borough of Croydon (1.8 miles north-east) and Croydon Airport Visitor Centre (within half a mile north-east). Green spaces nearby include Roundshaw Downs and Duppas Hill.

  • Schools near Russell Hill include Wilson's School (within half a mile north) and The John Fisher School (0.6 miles south-west)

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in Russell Hill until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.

  1. You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
  2. We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
  3. Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
  4. On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our food truck or trailer.
  5. When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.

How to prepare

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

What we need at the venue

Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • A spot for a taco-bar serving table
  • A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
  • Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking

In Russell Hill, 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.
