Old Coulsdon: your questions answered

Which station should guests use for Old Coulsdon?

Guests can use Coulsdon South station, about 1.4 miles north-west of Old Coulsdon.

Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St John the Evangelist?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.

Do you do a wedding bar?

Yes, our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices too. We’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.

How many guests can you serve?

Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.

Can you serve in the rain?

We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.

Do you give allergen information?

Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.

What if the photos overrun?

It happens at most weddings. Service starts when your running order says, even if that moves.

Wedding Mexican catering in Old Coulsdon, from our truck or trailer

Add our Mexican drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options too. Licensing is checked with you and the venue first. We serve a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, and it suits engagement parties and receptions after an intimate ceremony.

For a wedding in Old Coulsdon, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast or tacos as evening food can both work. Narrow streets mean we plan the arrival carefully, and some venues may need a parking suspension from the council. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Space, access and the venue

We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
  • Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
  • A place for the truck or trailer near where guests are eating

London streets around Old Coulsdon 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.

How it works

We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. In Old Coulsdon, 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’s dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. We start by checking your date.
  2. You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
  3. We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
  4. Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
  5. After serving, we clear away.
