Wedding Mexican catering in Ilford, served fresh
Your wedding menu is agreed with you, perhaps with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, alongside vegan choices like black beans or spiced mushrooms. At big weddings with every diet and receptions after a small ceremony, we can serve quesadillas, tacos and evening tacos.
In Ilford, couples might book tacos for the wedding breakfast, the evening, or both. Narrow streets mean we plan the arrival carefully, and a parking suspension may be needed at some venues. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

For event organisers in Ilford
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Prices and what affects them
We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many guests we are serving
- Parking and the route in
- The length of service
There is no one-size-fits-all price for wedding Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

Ilford: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Alban's Church?
Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.
Which station should guests use for Ilford?
Ilford station, in Ilford itself.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you cater the whole day?
We can. A taco bar works well as a wedding breakfast, and tacos or nachos make good evening food.
What if our speeches run late?
It happens at most weddings. Food is served to order, so we can start when you are ready.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Tell us when the speeches will be
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
- Put us in touch with your venue
- Tell us how many evening guests to expect
For a taco bar, fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests come up table by table if you like.
Add our drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you and your venue.
Comparing your options
Pizza and bacon rolls are common evening choices. Tacos and loaded nachos feel a bit more special. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
