Wedding Mexican catering for Merton Abbey events
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Merton Abbey
We cater weddings in and around Merton Abbey, from garden celebrations to marquee receptions. Tell us your plans and we will suggest what fits. At day-after celebrations and engagement parties at home, we can serve quesadillas, tacos and burrito bowls and more.
London weddings around Merton Abbey often mean a ceremony at a church or register office, then a reception at a hired venue. For a truck or trailer, the venue needs a courtyard, forecourt or car park we can drive into, so check vehicle access with the venue early. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and parking needs planning. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Merton Abbey
Could you serve in Wandle Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
We’re having a ceremony at Christ Church Colliers Wood: can you cater afterwards?
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’ll check the access.
Do you do evening food as well as the main meal?
Yes: one part of the day, or both main meals. Tell us what you have in mind.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can you feed our photographer and band?
Yes, include them in your numbers. Tell us when they’ll eat.
Can a taco bar feel special?
With good presentation, it feels like a celebration, and it suits a relaxed day.
What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. By late September, sunset in Merton Abbey is around 7:05pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. A late-May wedding keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- We start by checking your date.
- You pick the menu with us.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Name one person we can ask on the day
