How our Mexican party catering works in Upper Walthamstow
Mexican street food suits birthdays, garden parties and all kinds of celebrations. The truck or trailer is a focal point, and the food comes out hot. At street and neighbourhood parties and anniversary celebrations, we can serve loaded nachos, guacamole and salsas and a build-your-own taco bar and more.
In Upper Walthamstow, a back-garden party is the usual choice, but access can be tight. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot out front may work, with permission. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and parking needs planning too. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Upper Walthamstow: your questions answered
What about parking in Upper Walthamstow?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Which station is closest to Upper Walthamstow?
Upper Walthamstow has its own station: Wood Street station.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
How is the food prepared?
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.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Often, yes. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission.
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. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Why choose Mexican party catering in Upper Walthamstow?
It is the easiest way to feed a party without being stuck in the kitchen, and guests love it.
Whatever the occasion, our truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We can cater:
- Graduation and exam-results parties
