Mexican catering in Homerton, served fresh
Every menu is agreed with you, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It works well for birthday parties and summer garden parties, serving burritos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
In a London neighbourhood like Homerton, the first thing to plan for a food truck is parking and loading. Narrow streets, permit bays and yellow lines all affect where we can stop, so let us know about off-street space, or whether the council will need to suspend a parking bay. All of Greater London, Homerton included, is inside the ULEZ. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Should I do it 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 enjoy the party, let us serve.

Common questions in Homerton
Could you serve our guests after a service at United Reformed Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What about parking in Homerton?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you come to Homerton?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Homerton and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
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 cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
What do you need at the venue?
We need level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We arrive with our own mobile kitchen. We set up at your venue, serve hot food to order and pack down afterwards.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
How we price Mexican catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the route in
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Whether you need disposables
- How long we are needed on site
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Details that help
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Your menu ideas
- The address or venue name
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Your date and when you want service to start
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just fill in our quote form.
Where the truck can go in Homerton
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
As a London location, Homerton is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

- Build-your-own taco bar

Diets, allergies and planning
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To get it right:
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Send allergy details to us in writing
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.

The process
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. In Homerton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- When you’re done, we pack away.
Before we arrive
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
How to get a price
