How our Mexican party catering works in Chinatown
Birthdays, garden parties and family celebrations all suit Mexican street food. Guests gather round the truck or trailer, and the food comes out hot. We serve burritos, quesadillas and tacos, and it is a good fit for christenings and naming days and milestone birthdays.
In Chinatown, a back-garden party is the usual choice, but access can be tight. 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. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

What else we do in Chinatown
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

FAQs for Chinatown
Is it possible to have you in St Anne's Churchyard?
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.
We’re having a ceremony at St Anne's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Can you come to a private house?
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.
Do you come to Chinatown?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Chinatown is within our area. To check your date, send a quick message through our quote form.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. 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 cater for children?
Yes. Children typically enjoy quesadillas and simple tacos, with salsas served separately. Tell us how many children are coming.
Do we need to provide plates?
Let us know what you’d like and we will explain the options with your quote.
