Planning an event in Brockley?
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Have cover ready for a shower
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Plan a vegan filling alongside the others
If it rains, we can still serve from the truck or trailer, though guests will want cover to eat under.
Burrito bowls for guests who skip tortillas.
Mexican party catering in Brockley, from our truck or trailer
Mexican street food is made for relaxed parties: easy to eat with one hand, so guests can keep chatting and there is no need for a seating plan. It works well for graduation and exam-results parties and big birthdays, with quesadillas, tacos and loaded nachos.
Most parties in Brockley are in back gardens, which in London are often reached only through the house. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot out front may work, with permission. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and parking needs planning too. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Brockley parties: what to know
Brockley is about 1 mile south of New Cross, in Greater London. For Mexican party catering in Brockley, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. We cover 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
For guests coming by train, Crofton Park station is in Brockley itself. Close to Brockley are historic houses such as Queen's House (2.4 miles north-east) and Kingswood House (2.6 miles south-west). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.
This part of Greater London takes in SE4, SE23 and SE6, so your party can be anywhere in it. Whether your party is on Ivy Road, Nash Road and Lindal Road or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. Neighbouring places where we cater parties include Crofton Park (1 mile south-east), Honor Oak (1 mile west), Ladywell (1 mile east), Forest Hill (1 mile south-west) and Nunhead (1 mile north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (4 miles north-west), City of Westminster (7 miles north-west), Marylebone (7 miles north-west), Kensington (8 miles north-west), St Pancras (6 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (5 miles north).
Well-known places in the area include University Hospital Lewisham (0.7 miles east) and Greenwich Castle (2.2 miles north-east). Open spaces near Brockley include One Tree Hill and Knight's Hill.
- Local schools include Prendergast Ladywell School (under half a mile south-east) and Allenby Tutorial Trust (0.8 miles south-west)
- Nearby, you’ll find Blythe Hill Tavern (0.7 miles south)
- Local facilities include Nunhead (1.3 miles north-west)
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A picture of the drive or garden helps us check the space
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
London streets around Brockley 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 will advise before booking.
Should I do it myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Mexican party catering or something else?
Pizza vans are popular, but most parties have had one. Tacos and nachos feel a little different. 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?
- Options for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar

Why choose Mexican party catering in Brockley?
Guests choose their own fillings and toppings, so there’s less waste.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:
- Anniversaries and engagement parties
- Retirement and leaving parties
- Garden parties
- Exam-results parties
After a christening at a church like Church of St Hilda, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends.

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t normally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. In Brockley, it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but dark by about 3:55pm in December, so autumn and winter parties need more thought about lighting.
- You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
- 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.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Ask the venue about power and water

Questions from Brockley
Which station is closest to Brockley?
Crofton Park station, in Brockley itself.
Could you serve in Blythe Hill Fields?
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.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
What will our party cost?
Every party is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu and where you are. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
