Mexican street food for Capel Cross events
Mexican street food in Capel Cross, served fresh
A taco stall covers many diets at once: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That helps organisers balance the line-up. For open days and community events and hospitality and crew areas, we can serve vegan tacos, burritos and tacos.
Rural events near Capel Cross can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Your questions about Mexican street food in Capel Cross
How far is Capel Cross from central London?
Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your list.
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.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
For planners, venues and organisers
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Share vehicle access times with traders
- Plan seating near the food area
- Share power and water details early
- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
We keep our pitch tidy and safe.
Aguas frescas and soft drinks at the stall.
Step by step
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Late-September events in Capel Cross see sunset at about 7:00pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, our pitch needs and the paperwork your event asks for.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Events in parks such as The Gill need permission from the council or landowner, and we will send any documents they ask for from us. PTA volunteers planning an event for a school like Horsmonden Primary School might like a trader who brings everything and serves quickly.

- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
