Mexican party catering in Turnpike Lane, from our food truck or trailer
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that’s wide enough. Send us a picture if you are unsure. It suits leaving dos and retirements and garden get-togethers, serving guacamole and salsas, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos.
Throwing a party in Turnpike Lane? Street food from a truck or trailer keeps you out of the kitchen, at a venue, a courtyard or a house with off-street parking. Mention parking bays and permits. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Planning a party in Turnpike Lane
Turnpike Lane is about 3 miles north of Highbury, in Greater London. Wherever your party is in the N8 area, we can serve your guests. We cater in 764 places in Greater London. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Turnpike Lane to London (about 6 miles away).
Close to Turnpike Lane are historic houses such as Bruce Castle (1.5 miles north-east) and Witanhurst (2.5 miles south-west). A milestone birthday in a historic setting is possible, but find out early whether a food truck can get on site. A birthday picnic in Ducketts Common sounds fun, but bringing in a catering vehicle needs the owner’s agreement.
Wherever your party is in N8, N22 and N15, we can bring Mexican party catering to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Bury Road, High Road and Glebe Road, and a party on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

Why choose Mexican party catering in Turnpike Lane?
A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Tacos and burritos are served hot, order by order. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Why book with us
- A menu agreed with you
- We cover Turnpike Lane and the whole of Greater London
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch

What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Permission from the venue or landowner
In Turnpike Lane, 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
On the menu in Turnpike Lane
- Tacos
- Taco bar
- Loaded nachos
- Burritos

- Quesadillas
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
What affects the price in Turnpike Lane
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Guest numbers
- How many staff you need
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Parking and the route in
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Step by step
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. A summer party in Turnpike Lane 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.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You choose fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm power, water and the way in.
- Service starts at the agreed time.
- We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

FAQs for Turnpike Lane
We are having a ceremony at Church of St John The Baptist (greek Orthodox): can you cater afterwards?
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.
Could you serve in Ducketts Common?
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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Is my garden suitable?
Often, yes, if there is level, firm ground and access wide and high enough for the truck or trailer. Send a picture and we will check.
How much does party catering cost?
Every party is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu and where you are. Contact us for a quote.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can you cater for special diets?
We keep vegetarian and vegan fillings separate. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the party.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
- Check the width of your gate or drive
- Have enough chairs for most guests
At food time, we open the hatch.
