Mexican party catering for Little Ilford events

Mexican party catering in Little Ilford, from our truck or trailer

You get to be a guest at your own party: no shopping, no cooking and no washing up of pans. We take care of the food. For baby celebrations and anniversaries and engagement parties, we will put together a menu of burritos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.

In Little Ilford, 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. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Our caterer checklist

Should I do it myself?

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Planning for every diet

Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:

  • Check the width of your gate or drive
  • Warn the neighbours about the truck
  • Have cover ready for a shower
  • Count adults and children separately

When you’re ready to eat, we start serving.

How it compares

Pizza vans are popular, but most parties have had one. A taco truck stands out. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What affects the price in Little Ilford

Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Timings and hours
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • How many staff you need
  • The menu you choose

Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Where the event is
  • Gate widths, slopes and the ground
  • The date and rough timings
  • Roughly how many adults and children

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, use our quote form.

Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:

  • A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
  • Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
  • Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking

How it works

From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. A party in Little Ilford in late May has daylight until about 8:50pm. Once dusk falls, some garden lighting by the truck makes ordering easier.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
  2. You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
  3. We confirm access, parking, power and water.
  4. On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
  5. After serving, we tidy up and leave you to celebrate.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
  • Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

FAQs for Little Ilford
