What Mexican street food costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Timings and hours
- How many staff you need
- The menu you choose
- Food, drinks or both
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.
Getting an accurate quote

- The address or venue name
- A picture of where we’d park

- How we drive in and where we can park

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. By late September, it is dark in Chelwood Gate at around 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Find out what power and water are available
- Give us your final numbers and diets
Getting a price
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

Questions from Chelwood Gate
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Is Chelwood Gate close to London?
About 31 miles from central London, and we cover it.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Is there a vegan option at your stall?
We do. Our stall menu includes vegan and gluten-free options.
Will there be long queues?
Fillings are cooked ahead and kept hot, so orders are assembled quickly.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
How it compares
For a stall that adds atmosphere, a Mexican food truck is a strong choice. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.
Why us?
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- Service planned around your numbers
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A plan agreed before the day
