How our Mexican party catering works in Woodside
Add our drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options for drivers and children. Licensing is checked with you first. For garden get-togethers and street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of guacamole and salsas, a build-your-own taco bar and loaded nachos.
In Woodside, 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. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Party venues around Woodside
Woodside is about 6 miles south of New Cross, in Greater London. Across the CR0 area, we can serve your guests, as long as there is access. We cover all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Woodside to London (about 8 miles away).
Parks such as Ashburton Park usually need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often easier. No room on the drive? A hired hall or club around Woodside with a car park could host the party instead.
Anywhere in CR0, SE25 and CR9, we can bring Mexican party catering to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean a party at a home with a drive on Long Lane, Tudor Road and Coe Avenue. Nearby, we also cater parties in Ashburton (1 mile south), Addiscombe (1 mile south), Shirley Oaks (1 mile south-east), Monks Orchard (1 mile south-east) and Shirley (1 mile south-east).

Common questions in Woodside
Which station should guests use for Woodside?
Norwood Junction station, about 0.7 miles north-west of the centre.
Could you serve in Ashburton Park?
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’ll send what they need from us.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Can you serve from my drive or garden?
That depends on the way in and the ground. Tell us about gates, slopes and soft lawns, and we’ll check it works.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Yes, if there is space outside for the truck or trailer and the venue agrees. Ask the venue about food trucks.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How it compares
A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Our food is cooked to order and served hot. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Allergen information for every dish
- Menus chosen with you
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch

For event organisers in Woodside
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Planning the serving area
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Space for guests to queue
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
London streets around Woodside 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.
