Mexican street food in Charlton, from our truck or trailer

How it works
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. Late-September events in Charlton see sunset at about 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day

- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
