How our Mexican street food works in Ashley
We work to your trader pack and site rules, including arrival times and waste arrangements. For school and charity events and community days, we’ll put together a menu of vegan tacos, burritos and loaded nachos for your guests.
A fête near Ashley might be on a field with no mains power; let us know and we’ll confirm the arrangements. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
For event organisers in Ashley
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

Your questions about Mexican street food in Ashley
Could you come to a seaside event near Ashley?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots usually need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
What’s the nearest station to Ashley for guests?
The closest is Martin Mill station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
Do you need power?
We’ll confirm our needs once we know the pitch details.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your list and we will respond.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas 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.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Tell us about the event, dates and pitch, and we will check availability.
Do you have vegan options?
We do. Our stall menu includes vegan and gluten-free options.
Who books Mexican street food in Ashley?

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
