Planning an event in Downe?
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- A serving point within easy walk of the reception
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
London streets around Downe 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 before you book.

Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Downe
Add our Mexican drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices for drivers and children. Licensing is checked with you and the venue first. It works well for gatherings the day after a wedding and informal wedding breakfasts, serving evening tacos, loaded nachos and quesadillas.
In Downe, couples might book tacos for the wedding breakfast, the evening, or both. Narrow streets mean we plan where the truck or trailer stops, and some venues may need a parking suspension from the council. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

How we price wedding Mexican catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Whether you need disposables
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Timings and hours
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- Your menu ideas
- A picture of where we’d park
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground

How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. By late September, sunset in Downe is around 7:05pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. In late May it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, day and evening numbers and your plans.
- We plan the food with you: wedding breakfast, evening food or both.
- We agree access, timings, power and water with you and your venue.
- We arrive, set up and serve the food at the agreed times.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Ask the venue about power and water

What’s on the menu
Taco bar wedding breakfast
The taco bar is the main event, with every diet covered. Fillings are agreed with you.
Burrito bowls
Bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.
Should I do it myself?
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.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Perfect for your wedding in Downe
It feels personal, especially if you love Mexican food.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:

Downe questions
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is it possible to have you in South 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’ll send what they need from us.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

How it compares
A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian and vegan guests. Tacos cover them with separate fillings. 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.
