How our Mexican street food works in Cade Street
We agree a stall menu with you, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. It works well for village fairs and festivals, with loaded nachos, burritos and burrito bowls.
For a village fête or field event near Cade Street, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

FAQs for Cade Street
Can you trade at a school fair in Cade Street?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Is Cade Street close to London?
About 40 miles from central London.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can you bring margaritas?
That depends on licensing. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
How the day works
Here’s how the day typically runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. A December market in Cade Street loses the light at about 3:55pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
