Mexican catering in Shoreditch, from our truck or trailer
Keep it simple or go further: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and quesadillas, which works well for weddings, day or evening and markets and community events.
In a London neighbourhood like Shoreditch, 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 let us know about off-street space, or whether the council will need to suspend a parking bay. All of Greater London, Shoreditch included, is inside the ULEZ. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Step by step
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. In Shoreditch, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
What’s on the menu
Quesadillas
A quesadilla is an easy favourite, and they go down well with children.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, finished with salsas and toppings. Fillings are agreed with you, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms.
How we price Mexican catering
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you need disposables
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Timings and hours
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
What we need to know
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Your menu ideas
- The date and rough timings
- Expected numbers
The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your event in Shoreditch, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
Mexican catering or something else?
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. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Why us?
- Quoted for your event
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Book food, drinks or both
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included

Shoreditch questions
What about parking in Shoreditch?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Could you serve in Artillery Ground?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we can’t promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
What are your prices?
There’s no fixed price list, as each event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we will send a quote for your event.
