How our Mexican street food works in Brighstone
We work to your trader pack and site rules, from arrival times to waste. For village fêtes and summer fairs and sports clubs and race days, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, burritos and vegan tacos.
Rural events near Brighstone can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. By late September, it’s dark in Brighstone at around 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- We check your dates.
- We agree what we will serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We trade, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has

Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
