Choosing a Mexican caterer

How our Mexican party catering works in Upper Norwood

A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, as long as the ground is firm and level and the access is wide enough. Send us a picture if you’re unsure. It works well for new-home celebrations and garden parties, with quesadillas, burritos and guacamole and salsas.

Planning a London party in Upper Norwood? Street food from a truck or trailer keeps you out of the kitchen, and can work at a hired venue, a courtyard or a home with a drive. Tell us about parking bays, permits and any parking suspension. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Your questions about Mexican party catering in Upper Norwood

What’s the nearest station to Upper Norwood for guests?

Gipsy Hill station, in Upper Norwood itself.

What about parking in Upper Norwood?

That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.

How much is a taco truck for a party?

There’s no fixed price list, because every party is different. Tell us your numbers and plans for a quote.

Is Mexican food OK for kids?

Yes. Children typically enjoy quesadillas and simple tacos, with salsas served separately. Tell us how many children are coming.

Do you cater in Upper Norwood?

We do. Upper Norwood is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

How much does Mexican party catering cost in Upper Norwood?

Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

When should I book?

Early, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date.

Do you cook on site?

We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The number of people
  • The length of service
  • What’s on the menu
  • How many staff you need

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • The date and rough timings
  • A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Where the event is

Send us the date, your venue or SE19 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send a quick message through our quote form.

How the day works

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. A party in Upper Norwood in late May has daylight until about 8:50pm. Once dusk falls, some garden lighting by the truck makes ordering easier.

  1. It starts with your date, the address, numbers and diets.
  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
  4. On the day we set up and serve hot food at the time you choose.
  5. When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Ask for a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to drop us a line using the enquiry form. Tell us about your party in Upper Norwood, and we’ll put together a menu and price.

Tacos

Warm tortillas with a filling and fresh toppings, served from the hatch.

Salsas and guacamole

Guests add as much salsa as they like.

Mexican party catering or something else?

Hog roasts don’t suit vegetarians and vegans. Separate fillings cover every diet. 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.

What you get with us

  • Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
  • A menu agreed with you
  • Everything served fresh from the hatch
  • Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests

See our prices page or the cost guide.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Before you choose a spot

If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • Send a picture of the spot so we can check

In Upper Norwood, 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 picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

  • Taco bar
  • Quesadillas
  • Guacamole and chips
  • Loaded nachos
