Questions from Thames Ditton
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St. Nicholas?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is it possible to have you in Giggs Hill Green?
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 will send what they need from us.
How much is a taco truck for a party?
Every party is quoted for individually, based on numbers, the menu and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Surrey included. Find your area.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
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.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Have cover ready for a shower
- Count adults and children separately
- Plan somewhere for guests to sit and eat
- Include at least one vegan filling
If it rains, we can still serve from the truck or trailer, but plan a gazebo or indoor space for eating.
Bowls as an alternative to tacos.
Where the truck can go in Thames Ditton
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- A quick photo of the access helps us plan
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
What Mexican party catering costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The length of service
- Your choice of food and drinks
- How many guests we’re serving
- Whether you need disposables
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Getting an accurate quote

- Roughly how many adults and children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
