Mexican catering across SE15: what to know
There are 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets in SE15, so the setting can be anything from East Dulwich, Camberwell and Peckham to a quiet hamlet: a level, firm spot, a way in and agreed timings.
Peckham: With the A2215 nearby, getting the truck or trailer to Peckham is straightforward. For a fête or sports day at a school such as John Donne Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking. In Peckham, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
Catering for every guest
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
Is Mexican catering right for you?
A cold buffet is simple but tends to sit out for hours. Tacos and burritos are made to order and served hot.

What’s on the menu
Tacos
Street tacos are small, quick and full of flavour. They come with fresh salsas and toppings.
Loaded nachos
Loaded nachos are perfect for sharing, whether as a starter or a late bite. Dairy-free versions can be planned.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
