How our Mexican party catering works in Tufnell Park
A Mexican party takes the food off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. Our food truck or trailer parks up and we serve hot food as the party goes on. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and loaded nachos, and it suits housewarmings and baby celebrations.
Most parties in Tufnell Park 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. We prepare everything fresh for your party and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Tufnell Park is about 2 miles west of Highbury, in Greater London. Tell us where your party in Tufnell Park will be, and we’ll plan access and set-up. We cover 764 places across Greater London, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Historic houses near Tufnell Park include Witanhurst (1.2 miles north-west) and Keats House (1.5 miles west). A milestone birthday in a historic setting is possible, but find out early whether a food truck can get on site. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St Benet and All Saints, with a party at home or in a hall afterwards.
We cater parties across the NW5, N19 and N7 postcode area. Whether your party is on Hugo Road, Ward Road and Anson Road or anywhere nearby, we’ll plan where to park and serve. We also serve at parties in Dartmouth Park (1 mile west), Upper Holloway (1 mile north), Gospel Oak (1 mile west), Lissenden Gardens (1 mile west) and Holloway (1 mile east).

Planning the serving area
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
London streets around Tufnell Park 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 you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

- Timings and hours
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Staff for serving and the bar
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Your questions about Mexican party catering in Tufnell Park
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Benet and All Saints?
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.
Which station should guests use for Tufnell Park?
Upper Holloway station, about 0.5 miles north-east of the centre.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Is Mexican food OK for kids?
Of course. Quesadillas and simple tacos go down well with children, and salsas go on the side. Include children in your numbers.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
What will our party cost?
Every party is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu and where you are. Contact us for a quote.
How the day works
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A summer party in Tufnell Park stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We confirm access, parking, power and water.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
- Make sure most people can sit to eat
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Put severe allergies to us in writing
Children love watching their food being made, and quesadillas are a safe bet.
Loaded nachos to share while the party gets going.
About the menu
Tacos
Tacos are easy party food. Fillings are agreed with you.
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese inside.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
