Mexican party catering in Longlands

Mexican party catering in Longlands, served fresh

Many gardens and drives can take a truck or trailer, as long as the ground is firm and level and the access is wide enough. Not sure? Send us a picture. It suits street and neighbourhood parties and engagement and anniversary parties, serving loaded nachos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.

Planning a London party in Longlands? Street food from a truck or trailer keeps you out of the kitchen, at a venue, a courtyard or a house with off-street parking. Mention parking bays and permits.

Mexican party catering or something else?

A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Our food is cooked to order and served hot. 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?

  • Fast service, even with a queue
  • Allergen information for every dish
  • Menus chosen with you
  • A plan agreed before the day

Read our prices page or the cost guide.

What we need at the venue

Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:

  • Send a picture of the spot so we can check
  • Space for guests to queue
  • Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day

London streets around Longlands can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

On the menu in Longlands

  • Taco bar
  • Burritos
  • Quesadillas
  • Guacamole and chips
  • Loaded nachos
  • Tacos

How the day works

We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. For a winter party in Longlands, it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. At midsummer, sunset is about 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
  4. We set up and serve tacos and more while your guests enjoy the party.
  5. We pack down after service so the party can carry on.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Give the neighbours a heads-up
  • Measure your gate or driveway
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Ask guests with serious allergies to talk to us first

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

Simple quesadillas for children.

Should I do it myself?

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Common questions in Longlands

Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.

Is it possible to have you in Waring 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.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.

Can you come to a private house?

Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

Can you cater for children?

Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

What food and drinks do you offer?

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.

What access do you need?

Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.

Planners, venues and businesses

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
