How our wedding Mexican catering works in Upper Clapton

A food truck can make a colourful backdrop for photos, and guests like watching their food being served. Popular choices include evening tacos, tacos and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, and it suits sharing-style wedding meals and civil partnerships and vow renewals.

For a wedding in Upper Clapton, 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 cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

For event organisers in Upper Clapton

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

Wedding Mexican catering or something else?

A taco bar is less formal than a plated meal, but it can still feel like a celebration. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What we offer in Upper Clapton

  • A truck or trailer that comes to you
  • Service planned around your numbers
  • Allergen-aware menus
  • Options for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests

Space, access and the venue

Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:

  • Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
  • A serving point within easy walk of the reception
  • Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first

As a London location, Upper Clapton is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

What we offer

  • Guacamole and salsas
  • Nachos to share
  • Burritos and bowls
  • Evening tacos
  • Margarita bar
  • Taco bar wedding breakfast

Can I do a taco night myself?

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

A closer look at the menu

Taco bar wedding breakfast

Warm tortillas, a choice of fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, for every guest to build their own plate.

Salsas and guacamole

Freshly made salsas and guacamole.

How it works

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 for the agreed time. Late-September weddings in Upper Clapton see the sun go down at about 7:05pm, which can put the evening food just after dusk. A late-May wedding keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.

  1. First, we check availability for your date.
  2. You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
  3. We confirm the plan with your venue.
  4. Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
  5. After serving, we clear away.

How to prepare

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Questions to ask before you book

Upper Clapton: your questions answered

Is it possible to have you in Springfield 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’ll send what they need from us.

What’s the nearest station to Upper Clapton for guests?

Clapton station, about 0.6 miles south of the centre.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.

Can you cater for all our guests’ diets?

We plan carefully and keep options separate. Ask any guests with severe allergies to speak to us first.

How much is a food truck for an event?

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a quote.

Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?

Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.

Do you have dairy-free options?

Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

Do you need power and water?

It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Food, drinks or both

  • How long we’re needed on site

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
