Mexican street food for your event in Coldred
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders are served quickly from the hatch. On the menu are vegan tacos, tacos and quesadillas, which works well for community days and food markets.
At a field event near Coldred, power and water may be limited; let us know and we will confirm the arrangements. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Plan seating near the food area
- Put all trader information in one pack
Allergen details are on hand for every dish, and the menu shows vegan and gluten-free options.
Alcohol-free aguas frescas.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Evening events in Coldred have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.

How far is Coldred from central London?

Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
