South Kensington: your questions answered

Is it possible to have you in Burton’s Court?

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

Which station should guests use for South Kensington?

The closest is West Brompton station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

Can you supply plates?

How much is a food truck for an event?

How much is a taco truck for a party?

We quote for each party, based on numbers, the menu and the location. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

What happens if it rains?

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Do you have gluten-free options?

Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?

Mexican party catering for your party in South Kensington

Tacos are relaxed party food: easy to eat while you mingle. It works well for neighbourhood celebrations and leaving dos and retirements, serving burritos, guacamole and salsas and a build-your-own taco bar.

In South Kensington, 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. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and parking needs planning too. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

South Kensington parties: what to know

South Kensington is about 1 mile south-east of Kensington, in Greater London. We serve at parties in gardens, halls and venues around South Kensington and nearby villages. South Kensington is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover.

After a christening at a church like Chapel of St Luke, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends. For guests coming by train, West Brompton station is about 0.8 miles away.

For Mexican party catering in SW3, SW7 and SW10, we plan around your venue and the route in and your guests. Whether your party is on King's Road, Fulham Road and Museum Lane or anywhere nearby, we’ll plan where to park and serve. South Kensington sits on or near the A3217, so getting the truck or trailer to your party is simple. If your venue is just outside South Kensington, we also cover Little Chelsea (1 mile south), Chelsea (1 mile east), Brompton (1 mile north-east), World's End (1 mile south) and Earl's Court (1 mile west). Further out, we also cater in London (4 miles east), St Pancras (4 miles north-east), Shoreditch (5 miles north-east), Walthamstow (9 miles north-east), Hoxton (5 miles north-east) and Whitechapel (5 miles east).

A little further out are Royal Marsden Hospital (under half a mile east) and Victoria and Albert Museum Spiral (within half a mile north). The countryside around South Kensington includes Serpentine and Campden Hill.

  • Nearby schools include London School of Dramatic Art (less than half a mile north) and Collingham College (0.5 miles west)
  • Local pubs include Anglesea Arms (under half a mile south)
  • Other local spots include Natural History Museum Library and Archives (less than half a mile north) and Ladbroke Estate (2 miles north-west)

Before you choose a spot

Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:

  • A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
  • Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
  • The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle

In South Kensington, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Working with your venue

Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in South Kensington? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
