How our Mexican street food works in Birchden
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, so service stays quick through busy periods. At agricultural and county shows and crew and volunteer catering, we’ll put together a menu of tacos, vegan tacos and quesadillas.
At a fête or field event near Birchden, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Where the truck can go in Birchden
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Your trader pack and site rules
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can.
