Mexican catering in W11

How Mexican catering works in W11

Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: we park our truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. It suits leaving dos and retirement parties and garden parties, with fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas.

When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue.

  1. First, send us a few details about your event.
  2. You get a sample menu and a quote.
  3. Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
  5. Once service ends, we clear away.

Near you in Kensington

In Kensington, that could mean a party near Church of St Barnabas, Kensington School and St Barnabas and St Philip's CofE Primary School. You will also find Holland Park (under half a mile north-west), Holland Park School (within half a mile north), Scarsdale Tavern (under half a mile south-east) and Abdus Salam Library (1 mile east). There’s a railway station in Kensington itself: Kensington Olympia station. Other landmarks nearby include Ladbroke Estate (0.9 miles north) and St Mary Abbot's Hospital (0.5 miles east). For a walk before or after the party, there is WWT London Wetland Centre and The Long Water.

Mexican catering across W11: what to know

Across W11, we cater in 6 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Kensington, Notting Hill and Notting Dale or a quiet village, the approach is the same: access, level ground and a clear plan.

Kensington: When the service is at a church such as Church of St Barnabas, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. If people are travelling in by rail, Kensington has its own station, Kensington Olympia station. Winter evenings in Kensington close in by about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.

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.

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

About the menu

Quesadillas

Tortillas filled with melted cheese and a filling, toasted until crisp.

Build-your-own taco bar

Fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out for guests to help themselves, with tortillas kept warm. Each guest makes tacos their way.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To get it right:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Make sure the menu has a vegan option
  • Let us know about any other food at the event

We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.

Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we’ll set out what we can do in your quote.

Is Mexican catering right for you?

Pizza and burger vans are familiar choices. Mexican street food stands out.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Plates and napkins, or nothing at all
  • When final numbers are due
  • How dietary needs and allergies are handled
  • The deposit and payment dates

Organising for someone else?

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

FAQs for W11

What’s on the menu?

Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.

Can we add a bar?

Yes. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will talk licensing through with you.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.

Do you do parties at home?

Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

What do you need at the venue?

The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.

Do you give allergen information?

We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
