Wedding Mexican catering near New Cross
Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in New Cross
Wedding taco bars feel relaxed, generous and a little different. Everyone fills their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, and the queue turns into part of the fun. On the menu are tacos, loaded nachos and fresh guacamole and salsas, and it suits receptions after an intimate ceremony and vow renewals and blessings.
For a wedding in New Cross, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast or tacos as evening food can both work. Narrow streets mean we plan where the truck or trailer stops, and a parking suspension may be needed at some venues. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Step by step
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. In New Cross, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening tacos are typically served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the wedding breakfast, evening food or both with you.
- We agree timings and access with the venue.
- We serve at the agreed points in the day.
- We clear our area once service ends.

New Cross questions
Could you serve in Fordham 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.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St James'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 areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including New Cross.
Do you work with our venue?
Yes. We’ll speak to your venue about access and timings.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Do you cover New Cross?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including New Cross. For a quote, use our quote form.
For event organisers in New Cross
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Where the truck can go in New Cross
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
In New Cross, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
