Mexican catering in Sydenham Hill, from our food truck or trailer
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. For family gatherings and christenings and garden parties, we can serve tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos for your guests.
Around Sydenham Hill, parking and loading are the main things to plan for a truck or trailer. 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. Like all of Greater London, Sydenham Hill is inside the ULEZ. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Questions from Sydenham Hill
Where would you park in Sydenham Hill?
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.
Is it possible to have you in Long Meadow?
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.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: 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 photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. We offer dairy-free options.
How many guests can you cater for?
Our service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case.
How we price Mexican catering

- Plates, napkins and cutlery

- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and time of the event
- Approximate guest numbers, including children

Diets, allergies and planning
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Count children separately
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so it’s hot when it reaches them.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Events we cater in Sydenham Hill
You do not need a kitchen, so it works in gardens, fields and grounds without catering facilities.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Family celebrations
- Fairs and festivals
- Big birthday celebrations
- Staff parties and office lunches
If you are celebrating after a service at a church like Church of St Philip the Apostle, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal.
Questions to ask before you book
- Staff numbers and hours
- The deposit and payment dates
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- Who provides plates and napkins
How it works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. In Sydenham Hill, 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.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and how many.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
Before we arrive
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Tell us when you want service to start
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote.

Mexican catering or something else?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Every guest catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- A truck or trailer that comes to you

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
