Mexican catering for St Paul's Cray events
Where the truck can go in St Paul's Cray
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
As a London location, St Paul's Cray is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Mexican catering for your event in St Paul's Cray
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. On the menu are burritos, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for christenings and family parties and garden parties.
In a London neighbourhood like St Paul's Cray, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. Narrow streets and permit bays decide 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, St Paul's Cray included, is inside the ULEZ. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

St Paul's Cray questions
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Barnabas?
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 bring your truck or trailer to Chislehurst Common?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop service from the hatch. Plan a marquee, gazebo or indoor space for guests to eat in.
What can we choose from?
We agree the menu with each client, with fillings such as chicken tinga, carnitas or black beans. Take a look at the sample menu.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Mexican catering or something else?
Burgers and pizza are what guests often expect. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, yet it’s still food most guests know and like. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
What you get with us
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Allergen-aware menus
- Events in St Paul's Cray and across Greater London

Catering an event in St Paul's Cray
St Paul's Cray is about 1 mile north of Orpington, in Greater London. From the centre of St Paul's Cray to the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater right across the region, from St Paul's Cray to London (about 11 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as St Barnabas, the food normally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. A school such as Leesons Primary School running a summer fair or fundraiser could book a taco truck. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 6 miles of St Paul's Cray, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book.
For Mexican catering in BR5 and BR7, we plan around your venue and the route in and your guests. From Main Road, Murray Road and Rushet Road or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access. For events just outside St Paul's Cray, we cover St Mary Cray (1 mile south), Poverest (1 mile south), Derry Downs (1 mile south), Orpington (1 mile south) and Kevington (2 miles south-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as London (11 miles north-west), City of Westminster (14 miles north-west), Marylebone (14 miles north-west), Kensington (15 miles north-west), St Pancras (13 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (12 miles north-west).
Nearby you will also find Lullingstone Castle (4.8 miles south-east) and London Borough of Bromley Museum (1.5 miles south). Not far away are The Warren and Summer Hill.
- Schools near St Paul's Cray include Walsingham School (less than half a mile north) and Kemnal Technology College (0.9 miles north)

A closer look at the menu
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings are agreed with you, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms.
Loaded nachos
Tortilla chips piled with cheese, a filling, salsa, guacamole and toppings, made for sharing.
Working with your venue
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Diets, allergies and planning
We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To get it right:
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Let us know about any other food at the event
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away, leaving the space as we found it.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.

What else we do in St Paul's Cray
Step by step
Here’s how the day normally runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Around midsummer it stays light in St Paul's Cray until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our truck or trailer.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
