Mexican party catering for Arkley events
The process
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. December parties in Arkley are dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- We put a menu together and quote for it.
- Before the day, we check the space, the way in, power and water.
- We set up and serve tacos and more while your guests enjoy the party.
- After serving, we tidy up and leave you to celebrate.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Find out what power and water are available

Mexican party catering in Arkley, served fresh
Tacos are relaxed party food: easy to eat with one hand, so guests can keep chatting and there’s no need for a seating plan. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and burritos, which works well for christenings and naming days and engagement and anniversary parties.

Tell us about parking bays, permits and any parking suspension. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Arkley: your questions answered
What about parking in Arkley?
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.
Which station is closest to Arkley?
Elstree & Borehamwood station, about 2.1 miles west of the centre.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

There’s no fixed price list, because every party is different. Send your details and we’ll send a quote.
What does Mexican party catering cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you have vegan options?
We can. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
What’s on the menu
Build-your-own taco bar
A taco bar keeps a party sociable, and it suits every diet.
Loaded nachos
Tortilla chips with cheese, salsa, guacamole and toppings for sharing.
Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Space for guests to queue
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- A quick photo of the access helps us plan
London streets around Arkley 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Why choose Mexican party catering in Arkley?
A takeaway order is easy but forgettable. A truck or trailer serving hot food feels like an event. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Give separate numbers for children
- Plan where rubbish goes
- Ensure there’s a vegan option
- Make sure most people can sit to eat
Rain does not stop the hatch, but plan a gazebo or indoor space for eating.
Nachos for sharing while the party gets going.
Can I do a taco night myself?
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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
