Questions from Barham
Will you travel to a small place like Barham?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Barham?
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.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Do you do crew catering?
We can. Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Mexican street food in Barham, served fresh
Crew catering can be timed to your schedule, keeping your team going. It works well for outdoor cinema and theatre nights and seasonal and night markets, with burritos, tacos and burrito bowls.
At a field event near Barham, power and water may be limited; let us know and we’ll confirm the arrangements. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
How the day works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, it is dark in Barham at around 7:00pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

Planning help
What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What Mexican street food costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the route in
- The length of service
- Food, drinks or both
- What the venue already provides
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- The date and rough timings
- Your menu ideas
- The address or venue name
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, use our quote form.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
