Your questions about Mexican party catering in Haggerston

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Columba?

Yes. The church itself isn’t 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 Haggerston?

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.

What do you serve?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.

Do you do parties at home?

Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

What access do you need?

The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.

How is the food prepared?

We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.

Can guests build their own tacos?

Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.

Parties in Haggerston: gardens, venues and local tips

Haggerston is about 1 mile east of Hoxton, in Greater London. Across the N1 area, we can bring the truck or trailer to you. Haggerston is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover.

Parks such as Haggerston Park typically need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often easier. After a christening at a church like Church of St Columba, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends.

This part of Greater London takes in N1, E2 and E8. Your party could be at a home on Hyde Road, Glebe Road and Ufton Road or the roads around them. With the A1208 close by, Haggerston is easy for us to reach. Neighbouring places where we cater parties include Hoxton (1 mile west), Shoreditch (1 mile south), De Beauvoir Town (1 mile north), Kingsland (1 mile north) and Bethnal Green (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also cater in London (3 miles south), City of Westminster (4 miles south-west), Marylebone (3 miles west), Kensington (6 miles south-west), Walthamstow (4 miles north-east) and Hampstead (5 miles west).

Well-known places in the area include St Leonard's Hospital (within half a mile south) and Museum of the Home (less than half a mile south). The countryside around Haggerston includes St. James's Park Lake and Barnsbury Wood.

  • Local schools include The Bridge Academy (within half a mile north-east) and The Prince's School of Traditional Arts (0.6 miles south)
  • Pubs nearby include Stag's Head pub (under half a mile north-west)
  • Local facilities include Bishopsgate Institute Special Collections and Archives (1.1 miles south) and Metropolitan Borough of Islington (1.2 miles north-west)

Planning the serving area

We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
  • A photo of the drive or garden helps us check the space
  • A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue

In Haggerston, 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.

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

How the day works

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. A summer party in Haggerston 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.

  1. It starts with your date, the address, numbers and diets.
  2. We put a menu together and quote for it.
  3. Before the day, we check the space, the way in, power and water.
  4. On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
  5. When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

About the menu

Salsas and guacamole

Salsas go on the side, so guests choose the heat.

Build-your-own taco bar

The taco bar is where guests gather.

Working with your venue

If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Events we cater in Haggerston

It works for almost any celebration, from a first birthday to a ruby wedding.

Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. People in Haggerston can book us for events such as:

  • Leaving dos and retirements
  • Housewarming parties
  • Anniversaries and engagement parties
  • Graduation celebrations

Nearby historic houses include Sutton House (1.5 miles north-east) and Mansion House (1.6 miles south). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.
