Mexican catering in Temple Fortune
Mexican catering in Temple Fortune, served fresh
Mexican street food makes mixed diets simple. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. At family celebrations and office lunches and team days, we can serve tacos, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole for your guests.
Events in Temple Fortune 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 picture of the access. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

FAQs for Temple Fortune
Could you serve our guests after a service at Saint Mary and Archangel Michael Church?
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.
Could you serve in Princes Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will go through the licensing with you.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Do you cater for big events?
That depends on the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we will plan around them.
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit.

How we price Mexican catering

- What’s on the menu
- Serving staff
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Your menu ideas
- Where the event is
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
As a London location, Temple Fortune is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
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.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
