Mexican catering in Upton, from our food truck or trailer
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. At weddings, day or evening and christenings and family parties, we can serve burritos, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos.
In Upton, a courtyard, a venue forecourt or a garden with drive access can work well. 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 photo of the access. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Upton: your questions answered
Is it possible to have you in Danson Park?
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.
Is parking a problem for events in Upton?
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.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a quote.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How many guests can you cater for?
That depends on the event. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we’ll plan around them.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We do not publish set prices, because every event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we will send a quote for your event.
What Mexican catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The menu you choose
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Distance and access to the venue
- How many staff you need
Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
What we need to know
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- What you’d like on the menu
- The venue or postcode
- What power and water the site has
- The date and time of the event
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A drop-off platter is easy, but nobody remembers it. Hot food served from a truck feels like part of the event. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
Why book with us
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Allergen-aware menus
- Everything served fresh from the hatch

Where the truck can go in Upton
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Permission from the venue or landowner
London streets around Upton can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
