How Mexican catering works in E5
Keep it simple or go further: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. We serve loaded nachos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits anniversaries and engagements and school fairs and fundraisers.
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area.

- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we will park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.

Mexican catering across E5: what to know
Across E5, we cater in 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from Homerton, West Hackney and Hackney to a quiet hamlet: access, level ground and a clear plan.
Homerton: Close to Homerton are historic houses such as Sutton House (less than half a mile south-west) and Mansion House (3.2 miles south-west). Estates and historic houses tend to set their own rules for caterers, so find out what yours allows first. For a christening or wedding at a church such as United Reformed Church, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. In Homerton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Is Mexican catering right for you?
Burgers and pizza are what guests often expect. Mexican street food stands out, yet it is still food most guests know and like.

Common questions in E5
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we’ll send a quote for your event.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
