Mexican street food in Bishop's Waltham
How our Mexican street food works in Bishop's Waltham
We agree a stall menu with you, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Popular choices include burrito bowls, burritos and loaded nachos, which works well for open-air performances and open days and community events.
Around Bishop's Waltham, a fête or summer fair suits a food truck. Tell us about the pitch, ground and access. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, planned around your event.

What else we do in Bishop's Waltham
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Space, access and the venue
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Your trader pack and site rules
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
