About our Mexican street food in Abbotts Barton
A taco stall covers many diets at once: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That makes your food line-up easier. For food and music festivals and race days and sports events, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, burrito bowls and tacos for your guests.
Events near Abbotts Barton are often volunteer-run, so it helps to agree the pitch, power and water early. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

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

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
The process
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. By late September, it’s dark in Abbotts Barton at around 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- We check your dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
