How Mexican catering works in CR5
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. It works well for garden get-togethers and fundraisers and school events, with loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos.
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.

What’s near Coulsdon
Local spots for an event include homes and venues near Dollypers Hill, The Pembroke pub and St Andrew's Church. You will also find Smitham Primary School (less than half a mile north-west) and Coulsdon Sixth Form College (1 mile south-east). There’s a railway station in Coulsdon itself: Coulsdon South station, handy for guests travelling by train. A little further out are Croydon Airport Visitor Centre (3 miles north) and Purley War Memorial Hospital (2 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Duppas Hill and Mercers Lake.
Catering events across CR5
CR5 covers everything from Coulsdon, Purley and Old Coulsdon to 4 small villages and hamlets, and a truck or trailer suits most settings with access and level ground. In towns, plan parking and loading; in villages, tell us about lanes, gates and ground.
Coulsdon: For a christening or wedding at a church such as St Andrew's Church, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Before you pencil in Dollypers Hill, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement. Winter evenings in Coulsdon close in by about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
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.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
What Mexican catering costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- The number of people
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How long we’re needed on site
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

Tortilla chips piled with cheese, a filling, salsa, guacamole and toppings.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Comparing your options
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement.
What your quote should include
- The wet-weather plan
- When final numbers are due
- What the price includes, item by item
- The caterer’s food hygiene rating
