Mexican party catering near Croydon
Mexican party catering in Croydon, served fresh
A build-your-own taco bar is ideal for a party: guests fill their own tortillas from fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, so everybody gets what they like. For family get-togethers and christenings and naming days, we’ll put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and guacamole and salsas.
Most parties in Croydon are in back gardens, which in London are often reached only through the house. We can look at parking on a drive or out front, with permission. Parking needs planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. Everything is prepared fresh for your party and served from our food truck or trailer.

How it works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A summer party in Croydon stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
- Before the day, we check the space, the way in, power and water.
- On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Catering for every guest

- Give the neighbours a heads-up
- Measure your gate or driveway
- Give separate numbers for children
- Have bins ready
At food time, we open the hatch.

How we price Mexican party catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How many staff you need
- Parking and the route in
- The number of people
- What’s on the menu
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help

- The date and time of the event

Where the truck can go in Croydon
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
In Croydon, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as St Andrew's, with a party at home or in a hall afterwards. Close to Croydon are historic houses such as Addington Palace (2.5 miles east) and Kingswood House (4.4 miles north).

Croydon questions
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Andrew's?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Where would you park in Croydon?
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 have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Do we need to provide plates?
Let us know what you’d like and we’ll explain the options with your quote.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Yes. Children normally enjoy quesadillas and simple tacos, and salsas go on the side. Include children in your numbers.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
