How our Mexican party catering works in Purley
Taco bars are made for parties: guests fill their own tortillas from fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, so everybody gets what they like. At engagement and anniversary parties and big family gatherings, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, guacamole and salsas and burritos.
Throwing a party in Purley? Street food from a truck or trailer keeps you out of the kitchen, and can work at a hired venue, a courtyard or a home with a drive. Tell us about parking bays, permits and any parking suspension. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Questions from Purley
What about parking in Purley?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Which station should guests use for Purley?
Purley has its own station: Purley station.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Most children enjoy it, particularly quesadillas. Tell us how many children and their ages.
How early should we book?
Early is best, but ask even if it’s soon. Send your date and we’ll check.
Can you supply plates?
Ask us when you enquire, and we will set out what we can do in the quote.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Whether you need disposables
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Distance and access to the venue
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
