Wedding Mexican catering for Riddlesdown events
Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Riddlesdown
Our drinks bar can serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices for drivers and children. We’ll check the licensing with you and your venue. For farm and barn venues and evening wedding food, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and fresh guacamole and salsas.
Couples in Riddlesdown often marry locally and hold the reception at a venue nearby. For a truck or trailer, the venue needs a courtyard, forecourt or car park we can drive into, so ask your venue about vehicle access and loading early. Parking and loading in London need planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We prepare everything fresh for your wedding and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Riddlesdown: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Riddlesdown?
Guests can use Riddlesdown station, which is right in Riddlesdown.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Edmund's Church?
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 will check the access.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Is a taco bar smart enough for a wedding?
It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on how it’s served.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
The process
Here’s how the day typically runs: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. By late September, sunset in Riddlesdown is around 7:05pm, which can put the evening food just after dusk. In late May it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, day and evening numbers and your plans.
- You get a suggested wedding menu and a quote to match.
- We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
- On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

As a London location, Riddlesdown is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
