Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Space for guests to queue
London streets around Colindale 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 picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Mexican party catering in Colindale, served fresh
We plan the menu together, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. At engagement and anniversary parties and graduation celebrations, we will put together a menu of tacos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
Throwing a party in Colindale? Street food from a truck or trailer keeps you out of the kitchen, at a venue, a courtyard or a house with off-street parking. Mention parking bays and permits. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Colindale questions
What’s the nearest station to Colindale for guests?
Guests can use Hendon station, about 1 mile south-east of Colindale.
Where would you park in Colindale?
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.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Is my garden suitable?
That depends on the way in and the ground. Tell us about gates, slopes and soft lawns, and we’ll confirm.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.

The process
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. In Colindale, 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.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- We put a menu together and quote for it.
- We confirm access, parking, power and water.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- After serving, we tidy up and leave you to celebrate.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
How to get a price
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

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, and handles allergen information for you.
