Mexican party catering for your party in Upper Holloway
Mexican street food is made for relaxed parties: easy to eat while you mingle. Popular choices include tacos, guacamole and salsas and quesadillas, which works well for summer garden parties and leaving dos and retirements.
Most parties in Upper Holloway 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 turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

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 anything containing allergens.

Where the truck can go in Upper Holloway
We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- A quick photo of the access helps us plan
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
As a London location, Upper Holloway is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Catering for every guest
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Have cover ready for a shower
- Plan a vegan filling alongside the others
- Let the neighbours know
- Have bins ready
If it rains, we can still serve from the truck or trailer, though guests will want cover to eat under.

Questions from Upper Holloway
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Andrew's Whitehall Park?
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.
What’s the nearest station to Upper Holloway for guests?
Guests can use Upper Holloway station, which is right in Upper Holloway.
Can you come to a private house?
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’ll advise.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
What does Mexican party catering cost?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
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. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Of course. Quesadillas and simple tacos go down well with children, with salsas served separately. Tell us how many children are coming.
