Mexican street food in Angel
Mexican street food in Angel, served fresh
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders are served quickly from the hatch. We serve burrito bowls, tacos and vegan tacos, and it’s a good fit for feeding crew and volunteers and race days and sports events.
In Angel, a taco truck suits street parties and school fairs, once the road closure or site permission is in place. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- Your trader pack and site rules
Angel is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Why choose Mexican street food in Angel?
Burger stalls are common. Tacos add something different to a food line-up. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
