- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.

Mexican catering across SE8: what to know
SE8 covers everything from New Cross, Greenwich and St Johns to 0 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.
New Cross: If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like St James's Church, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal. Reaching New Cross by road is easy for us, thanks to the A2209 and A2210. Daylight in New Cross runs to about 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
Mexican catering or something else?
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in SE8? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Include at least one vegan filling
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
FAQs for SE8
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you have dairy-free options?

Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including SE8.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we cannot promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you serve drinks as well?
Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We’ll check the licensing with you before the day.
