Mexican street food in Chessington
Mexican street food in Chessington, from our food truck or trailer
A Mexican food truck pulls a crowd at any outdoor event. People follow the smell of warm tortillas, and orders are served quickly from the hatch. On the menu are vegan tacos, burrito bowls and quesadillas, and it suits food markets and open-air performances.
Street parties and school fairs in Chessington can be a great fit for a taco truck, once the road closure or site permission is in place. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

How it works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. Christmas markets in Chessington trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Find out what power and water are available
- Give us your final numbers and diets

Chessington: your questions answered
Can you trade at a school fair in Chessington?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
What about parking in Chessington?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What does Mexican street food cost?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Do you need power?
Let us know what the pitch has and we will confirm our needs. Power and water are agreed with each booking.
What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
As a London location, Chessington is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
