How Mexican catering works in W1J
We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. It suits big birthday celebrations and company summer parties, with a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Cost
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Mexican catering across W1J: what to know
From St James's, Westminster and Millbank to 0 villages and hamlets, events across W1J range from town-centre venues to gardens and fields, and a truck or trailer suits most settings with access and level ground. Town events mean planning parking; village events mean planning access and ground.
St James's: By road, St James's is on or near the A4 and A400, which makes it easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. Parks such as St Anne's Churchyard usually need the owner’s permission for vehicles and catering, so ask before you plan an event there. A December event in St James's will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
What’s on the menu
Loaded nachos
Nachos are easy sharing food, whether as a starter or a late bite. We can plan a dairy-free version.
Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. They come with fresh salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Travel, parking and access
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Staff for serving and the bar
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The venue or postcode
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
Allergen information is on hand for every dish, and guests are welcome to ask before ordering.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.

W1J questions
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
