Mexican street food in Brompton, served fresh
We work to your trader pack and site rules, including arrival times and waste arrangements. For agricultural and county shows and hospitality and crew areas, we’ll put together a menu of burritos, tacos and loaded nachos and more.
Around Brompton, a fête or summer fair suits a food truck. Tell us about the pitch, ground and access. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

What happens on the day
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Summer events in Brompton have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.

Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Prices and what affects them
Contact us for a quote, and the price is based on:
- The number of people
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How long we are needed on site
Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- What you’d like on the menu
- The date and rough timings
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Any dietary needs and allergies

Common questions in Brompton
Which station should guests use for Brompton?
Guests can use Chatham station, about 0.7 miles south-west of Brompton.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Great Lines Heritage Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
What does Mexican street food cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Can you send us your trader documents?
Send us your list.
Is there a vegan option at your stall?
Yes, always. We serve vegan fillings such as black beans or spiced mushrooms.
