Mexican party catering for your party in Nunhead
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. It works well for housewarming parties and summer garden parties, with loaded nachos, burritos and quesadillas.
In Nunhead, 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. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and parking needs planning too. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Nunhead parties: what to know
Nunhead is about 1 mile south-west of New Cross, in Greater London. Tell us where your party in Nunhead will be, and we will plan the journey and set-up. Nunhead is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover.
A birthday picnic in Peckham Rye sounds fun, but bringing in a catering vehicle needs the owner’s agreement. Once the service at a church like Saint Antony with Saint Silas is over, the party can move somewhere with space for the truck and a queue.

How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our food truck or trailer, and get on with serving. A summer party in Nunhead stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

- You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
- Before the day, we check the space, the way in, power and water.

FAQs for Nunhead
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Peckham Rye?
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.
Which station is closest to Nunhead?
Nunhead station, in Nunhead itself.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you come to a private house?
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.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Can you cater for special diets?
We can. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
