Mexican party catering for your party in Deptford
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 summer garden parties and retirement celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, quesadillas and a build-your-own taco bar.
In Deptford, 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. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
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.
Hosting a taco party in Deptford
Deptford is about 3 miles south-east of Whitechapel, in Greater London. We cater parties at homes, gardens and venues in Deptford. We serve in all 764 towns and villages in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Close to Deptford are historic houses such as Queen's House (1 mile east) and Mansion House (3.6 miles north-west). A milestone birthday in a historic setting is possible, but find out early whether a food truck can get on site. Parks such as Sue Godfrey Nature Park usually need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often easier.
We serve at parties all over SE8, SE10 and SE14. Streets in the area include Mill Lane, Dixon Road and Clare Road, and a party on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. You’ll find Deptford on the A2209, which makes it straightforward to bring the truck or trailer.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

Questions from Deptford
Which station should guests use for Deptford?
Deptford station, in Deptford itself.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Sue Godfrey Nature Park?
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’ll send what they need from us.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Is Mexican food OK for kids?
It’s popular with children, especially quesadillas or simple tacos. Tell us how many children and their ages.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
