Mexican party catering in South Acton, 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 anniversary celebrations and housewarming parties, with a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and burritos.

Most parties in South Acton are in back gardens, which in London are often reached only through the house. 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. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

What happens on the day

On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. A summer party in South Acton stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We confirm access, then arrive early on the day.
  4. Food is served from the hatch or the taco bar.
  5. We pack down after service.

How to prepare

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Should I do it myself?

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

FAQs for South Acton

What’s the nearest station to South Acton for guests?

South Acton station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre.

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Gunnersbury Park?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.

Do you do a taco bar?

We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.

Can you supply plates?

Ask us when you enquire, and we’ll set out what we can do in the quote.

Who clears up?

We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.

How spicy is the food?

The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

Can you cater for special diets?

Yes. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.

Do you cook on site?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

About the menu

Loaded nachos

Nachos are a party favourite.

Burritos

Burritos are a full meal in one, ideal for hungry guests.

Before you choose a spot

Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:

  • A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
  • Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
  • A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand

London streets around South Acton 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

What Mexican party catering costs

  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • Your choice of food and drinks

  • Diets and allergies you know about

  • Gate widths, slopes and the ground

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
