Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Schedule crew meals
- Check allergen information is on display
- Give traders a single information pack
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
Allergen information is available at the hatch.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
How we price Mexican street food
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- How many guests we are serving
- Travel, parking and access
- The menu you choose
- The length of service
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A picture of where we’d park
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
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, and handles allergen information for you.
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
The menu, item by item
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips loaded up.
Vegan tacos
Vegan fillings with salsa and toppings.
Comparing your options
If you want a trader that adds atmosphere, tacos and burritos deliver. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
