East Ham questions
Which station is closest to East Ham?
Guests can use Barking station, about 1.3 miles north-east of East Ham.
Where would you park in East Ham?
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.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

Street food for events around East Ham
East Ham is about 5 miles south-east of Walthamstow, in Greater London. Whether your event is in the middle of East Ham or on the outskirts, Mexican street food works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. East Ham is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from East Ham to London (7 miles away).
A school such as St Michael's Catholic Primary School running a summer fair could book a taco truck. If your event is in Beckton District Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission; we will supply what they need from us.
We cater events across E6, IG11, E13 and E12 and the streets around it. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on High Street South, Market Street and High Street North. East Ham is on the A13 and A117, so it’s easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. Close by, we cover events in Wallend (1 mile north-east), Upton Park (1 mile west), Plashet (1 mile north), Beckton (1 mile south-east) and Greengate (1 mile west). Further out, we also cater in London (7 miles west), City of Westminster (9 miles west), Marylebone (9 miles west), Kensington (11 miles west), St Pancras (7 miles west) and Shoreditch (6 miles west).

- Schools near East Ham include Langdon School (0.5 miles north-east) and The Service for Deaf and Partially Hearing Children (1.1 miles west)
- Local pubs include The Miller's Well pub (less than half a mile north)

Can I do a taco night myself?
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.
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.
What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space won’t work. The main points are:
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Spacing from tents and other structures
In East Ham, 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.
Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The number of people
- Timings and hours
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Your choice of food and drinks
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The date and rough timings
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The venue or postcode
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote.

- What the caterer needs from your venue
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
The process
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. A December market in East Ham loses the light at about 3:50pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Find out what power and water are available
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
Ask for a quote
Send us the date, your venue or E6 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
