Wedding Mexican catering for Barking events

Wedding Mexican catering in Barking, from our food truck or trailer

We can do the wedding breakfast, evening food, or the two together. One option is a taco bar for the main meal and tacos or nachos later on. At engagement parties at home and farm and barn venues, we can serve quesadillas, evening tacos and burrito bowls.

Couples in Barking often marry locally and hold the reception at a venue nearby. For a truck or trailer, the venue needs a courtyard, forecourt or car park we can drive into, so ask your venue about vehicle access and loading early. Parking and loading in London need planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Where the truck can go in Barking

We will be honest if a space will not work. What matters most:

  • The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
  • A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
  • Space for guests to queue

London streets around Barking can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

On the menu in Barking

Catering for every guest

Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:

  • Share your running order, including speeches
  • Think about a covered space for wet weather
  • Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers and vehicles
  • Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies

On the day, we work with your coordinator or toastmaster, so you do not have to.

Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or staff, and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.

How it works

We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. In Barking, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening tacos are generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:50pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
  2. Together we choose a taco bar, evening food or both, and we send a quote.
  3. We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
  4. On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
  5. We pack down after service and leave our area tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

How to get a price

Planning help

Wedding Mexican catering or something else?

A taco bar is less formal than a plated meal, but with good presentation it still feels special. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

Planners, venues and businesses

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

How we price wedding Mexican catering

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • How many staff you need
  • The number of people
  • Whether you add a drinks bar or food
  • What the venue already provides

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The date and time of the event
  • The venue or postcode
  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, send a quick message through our quote form.

Barking: your questions answered

Is it possible to have you in Mayesbrook Park?

It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.

What’s the nearest station to Barking for guests?

The closest is Barking station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

Do you cater in Barking?

We do. We serve at events in Barking and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.

How long do you serve for?

It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.

Can you handle dietary needs at our wedding?

We plan carefully and keep options separate. Ask any guests with severe allergies to speak to us first.

Is the food suitable for children?

Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.

Can we add margaritas?

Yes, we have a drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we’ll check that with you.

Can you come to a private house?

Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
