Mexican street food in Benover, served fresh
One Mexican trader covers several diets: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That makes your food line-up easier. For summer fairs and fêtes and seasonal and night markets, we can serve loaded nachos, tacos and vegan tacos.
Near Benover, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Organising for someone else?
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Should I do it 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.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
