Mexican catering in South Woodford, served fresh
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. We serve burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos, and it’s a good fit for office lunches and team days and christenings and family parties.
Around South Woodford, parking and loading are the main things to plan for a truck or trailer. 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, South Woodford included, is inside the ULEZ. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

South Woodford: your questions answered
Could you serve in The Highams Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
What about parking in South Woodford?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with 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?
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details and you will get a quote for your event.
Do you cater for big events?

What affects the price in South Woodford
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The number of people
- Serving staff
- Timings and hours
- Whether you need disposables
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Where the event is
- What you’d like on the menu
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just fill in our quote form.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Planners, venues and businesses
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
How it compares
Cold buffets are easy, but the food sits out. Our food is served hot, one order at a time. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

Where the truck can go in South Woodford
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
As a London location, South Woodford is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. In South Woodford, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
