About our Mexican street food in Abbey Wood
A Mexican food truck pulls a crowd at any outdoor event. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders come out fast from the hatch. It works well for festivals and hospitality and crew areas, with loaded nachos, vegan tacos and burritos.
In Abbey Wood, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Organisers typically need council permission for public spaces and road closures, and we will send whatever the organiser needs from us. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Abbey Wood questions
What about parking in Abbey Wood?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Abbey Wood?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
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.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we’ll let you know if we’re available.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
London streets around Abbey Wood 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
