If you are celebrating after a service at a church like St Botolph's Church, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal.

FAQs for Upper Ruxley
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Foots Cray Meadows?
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’ll send what they need from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Botolph's Church?
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’ll check the access.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can we add a bar?
Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing with you before the day.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we’ll send a quote for your event.
The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Planning an evening event in Upper Ruxley? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights or floodlights help once it gets dark.

For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it is a good fit.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
If timings change on the day, tell us and we’ll adjust.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
Upper Ruxley is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.

About the menu
Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. We serve them with salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Build-your-own taco bar
Fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out for guests to help themselves, with warm tortillas to fill. Each guest makes tacos their way.
How we price Mexican catering
These are the factors that matter most:
- Guest numbers
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- How long we are needed on site
- Parking and the route in
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- What power and water the site has
- The date and rough timings
- How we drive in and where we can park
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you are ready, send a quick message through our quote form.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.
