Mexican street food for your event in Chaldon
A taco stall covers many diets at once: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That makes your food line-up easier. It works well for hospitality and crew areas and food and music festivals, with burrito bowls, loaded nachos and burritos.
At a fête or field event near Chaldon, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
What happens on the day
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, it’s dark in Chaldon at around 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Find out what power and water are available
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
