Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Canonbury
For weddings in Canonbury and nearby, we can cater one part of the day or both main meals. Tell us your plans and we will suggest what fits. On the menu are burrito bowls, tacos and evening tacos, and it is a good fit for evening wedding food and farm and barn venues.
For a wedding in Canonbury, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast or tacos as evening food can both work. Narrow streets mean we plan the arrival carefully, and a parking suspension may be needed at some venues. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- A serving spot close to the marquee or reception area
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site

What wedding Mexican catering costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Distance and access to the venue
- The menu you choose
- The number of people
- How many staff you need
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- What you’d like on the menu
- The address or venue name
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Any dietary needs and allergies

Why choose wedding Mexican catering in Canonbury?
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen and a larger team. We bring our kitchen with us, and the style is more relaxed. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Flag any coeliac guests or serious allergies
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Put us in touch with your venue
- Check your date with us early
After service, we clear our area; the evening carries on without us.
Nachos to share work well later in the evening.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. In Canonbury, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means evening food is generally served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.
- We start by checking your date.
- You pick the menu with us.
- We confirm the plan with your venue.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
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.
Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Canonbury
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Paul's Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Where would you park in Canonbury?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you cater in Canonbury?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Canonbury is within our area. For a quote, send a quick message through our quote form.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
