Mexican party catering for Downham events
Mexican party catering in Downham, served fresh
Many gardens and drives can take a truck or trailer, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that is wide enough. Not sure? Send us a picture. Popular choices include quesadillas, loaded nachos and burritos, which works well for birthday parties and christenings and naming days.
In Downham, a back-garden party is the usual choice, but access can be tight. 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. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Send a picture of the spot so we can check
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
In Downham, 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
How we price Mexican party catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How many guests we are serving
- What the venue already provides
- The menu you choose
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Details that help

- Gate widths, slopes and the ground

Downham questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Barnabas?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Where would you park in Downham?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do we need to provide plates?
Tell us what you need and we will include the options in your quote.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
What does Mexican party catering cost?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
We keep vegetarian and vegan fillings separate, and every dish is labelled. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to speak to us first.
Is Mexican party catering right for your party?
For a party that feels a little special without being formal, tacos and a taco bar fit perfectly. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican party catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
Why us?
- Allergen information for every dish
- Catering across Greater London, including Downham
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch

Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
