About our Mexican street food in Calcot
The menu is agreed with organisers, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. On the menu are burritos, quesadillas and burrito bowls, and it is a good fit for hospitality and crew areas and seasonal and night markets.
Events near Calcot are often volunteer-run, so it helps to agree the pitch, power and water early. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:

- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Plan seating near the food area
Orders are served throughout the event.
Alcohol-free aguas frescas.
Planning the serving area
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
What happens on the day
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. Late-September events in Calcot see sunset at about 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Calcot questions
Can you trade at a school fair in Calcot?
Yes, if the school is happy and there’s access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Could you serve in Calcot 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.
Do you do crew catering?
Yes, at set times to suit your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you send us your trader documents?
Tell us what the event needs and we’ll send the paperwork your event asks for.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we will talk licensing through with you and your venue.
