Mexican street food in Addington, from our truck or trailer

We slow-cook fillings ahead and finish them on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. It works well for summer fairs and fêtes and county and country shows, serving vegan tacos, loaded nachos and burritos.

Street parties and school fairs in Addington can be a great fit for a taco truck, once the road closure or site permission is in place. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

FAQs for Addington

Which station should guests use for Addington?

The closest is West Wickham station, roughly 1.7 miles away.

Can you trade at a school fair in Addington?

We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.

Is the food suitable for children?

Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.

What food and drinks do you offer?

We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

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

Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.

Do you cater in Addington?

We do. We serve at events in Addington and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

How long are you on site?

That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.

How it works

Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December market in Addington loses the light at about 3:55pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.

  1. Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
  2. We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
  3. We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
  4. We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
  5. At close, we pack down and tidy up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Burritos

Burritos are hearty festival food.

Burrito bowls

Bowls suit gluten-free visitors.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

Why choose Mexican street food in Addington?

It adds colour to a food line-up.

Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:

  • Village fairs
  • Sports clubs and race days
  • Fundraisers and fêtes
  • Seasonal and night markets

If you are organising a summer fair or fundraiser for a school such as Applegarth Academy, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser.
