What Mexican street food costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- The number of people
- Timings and hours
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Your date and when you want service to start
- A picture of where we’d park
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
Send us the date, your venue or PO38 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
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.
