Mexican street food in Chalton
Mexican street food in Chalton, from our truck or trailer
The menu is agreed with organisers, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. At outdoor cinema and theatre nights and seasonal and night markets, we can serve vegan tacos, burritos and quesadillas and more.
Near Chalton, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Mexican street food or something else?
Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot burrito or taco bowl keeps crew going. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

Your questions about Mexican street food in Chalton
How far is Chalton from central London?
Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
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.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Can you bring margaritas?
It depends on the event’s licence. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Running an event in Chalton
Chalton is about 3 miles north-east of Horndean, in Hampshire. From the centre of Chalton to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Chalton is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 19 miles away.
A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Michael might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. For a public event, it helps to tell people that the nearest station is Rowlands Castle station, about 3.1 miles south. Organisers near the South Downs National Park, within about 5 miles of Chalton, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets.

Working with your venue
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
What’s on the menu
Tacos
Tacos are made for eating on the move.
Loaded nachos
Sharing nachos go down well.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
