Mexican catering across EC1P
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. We serve burritos, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos, and it suits leaving parties and markets and community events.
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- We serve hot food from our truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- When you are done, we pack away.

Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Why street food works
People like choosing their own toppings, and the taco bar gets them talking.
If you are planning any of these, we can help:
- Birthday parties
- Charity and school events
- Office lunches and team days
- Garden get-togethers

What we need at the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
Organising for someone else?
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 your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Common questions in EC1P
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can you cater for special diets?
We can. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will go through the licensing with you.
Do you cater for big events?
It depends on the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
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.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, though guests need a covered place to eat.
