How our Mexican street food works in Brading
We work to your trader pack and site rules, including arrival times and waste arrangements. We serve vegan tacos, burrito bowls and burritos, which works well for community events and open days and street food and farmers’ markets.
Near Brading, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food truck is a big help. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

How the day works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. By late September, it’s dark in Brading at around 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Share the running order, including any speeches
