Mexican street food near Brabourne Lees
Mexican street food in Brabourne Lees, served fresh
For festivals, numbers can be larger than most of our events, so tell us expected visitor numbers and trading hours and we will plan around them. We serve tacos, vegan tacos and loaded nachos, and it’s a good fit for community days and sports clubs and race days.
Rural events near Brabourne Lees can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
