About our Mexican street food in Caterham
Organisers can book us as a public stall or to feed crew, volunteers and hospitality areas. On the menu are burrito bowls, loaded nachos and vegan tacos, and it’s a good fit for county and country shows and outdoor cinema and theatre nights.
In Caterham, schools, clubs and churches often run summer events. A truck or trailer can suit any of them. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
Mexican street food or something else?
Hot-cabinet food lacks appeal. Our food is made to order. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
