Mexican party catering in Riddlesdown
Mexican party catering for your party in Riddlesdown
We cater parties at homes, village halls with outdoor space, clubs and hired venues. Tell us where the party is and we’ll check the access. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and quesadillas, and it’s a good fit for birthday parties and family reunions.
In Riddlesdown, a back-garden party is the usual choice, but access can be tight. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot out front may work, with permission. Parking needs planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Your questions about Mexican party catering in Riddlesdown
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Dollypers Hill?
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.
Where would you park in Riddlesdown?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Most children enjoy it, especially quesadillas or simple tacos. Tell us how many children and their ages.
Can you supply plates?
Ask us when you enquire, and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Step by step
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. At midsummer, it’s light in Riddlesdown until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
- We put a menu together and quote for it.
- Before the day, we check the space, the way in, power and water.
- On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
- After serving, we tidy up and leave you to celebrate.
Before we arrive
