How our Mexican catering works in Ruxley
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 retirement and leaving parties and garden get-togethers, with quesadillas, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a London neighbourhood like Ruxley, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. Narrow streets and permit bays decide where we can stop, so let us know about off-street space, or whether the council will need to suspend a parking bay. All of Greater London, Ruxley included, is inside the ULEZ. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Include at least one vegan filling

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Planning a food truck in Ruxley
Ruxley is about 2 miles south-east of Sidcup, in Greater London. We serve at events in gardens, halls and venues around Ruxley and nearby villages. We cater in 764 places in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for London, about 11 miles away.
Before you pencil in Foots Cray Meadows, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement. For a christening or wedding at a church such as St Botolph's Church, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Ruxley is within about 7 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, with country venues and gardens that can suit a food truck. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about vehicles and catering, so check with yours.

FAQs for Ruxley
We are having a ceremony at St Botolph's Church: 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 will check the access.
Which station should guests use for Ruxley?
The closest is Albany Park station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
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 talk licensing through with you and your venue.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.

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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
