How our Mexican catering works in Park Town
We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. It suits office lunches and team days and birthday parties, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos and burrito bowls.
A place like Park Town may have a hall or a club with a car park nearby; a truck or trailer can work at any of them, with permission and a level spot. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Common questions in Park Town
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Oxford University Parks?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
How far is Park Town from central London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We park our food truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will talk licensing through with you.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.

Step by step
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Around midsummer it stays light in Park Town until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it’s 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.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- We serve hot food from our truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- We pack away when service is over.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Permission from the venue or landowner
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
On the menu in Park Town

How it compares
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
