About our Mexican catering in South Hampstead
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so nobody ends up with something they don’t want. Popular choices include burritos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for fundraisers and school events and summer garden parties.
Events in South Hampstead are often in courtyards, office forecourts, hired venues and gardens with side access. London gardens are often reached only through the house, so the truck or trailer may need to stay on a drive or the street, with permission. Send us a photo of the access. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Questions from South Hampstead
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of All Souls?
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.
What about parking in South Hampstead?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
What space do you need?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we will check it works. We also need room for a queue.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop service from the hatch. Have somewhere covered ready for guests.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.

We do. We serve at events in South Hampstead and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.

What’s on the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your event.
Loaded nachos
Nachos are easy sharing food, whether as a starter or a late bite. Dairy-free versions can be planned.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Give us separate numbers for children
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away quietly.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter.

How we price Mexican catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Travel, parking and access
- What the venue already provides
- How many guests we are serving
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- A picture of where we’d park
- Roughly how many adults and children
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
Space, access and the venue
We will be honest if a space will not work. What matters most:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
South Hampstead is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
