About our Mexican street food in Ditchling
A taco stall covers many diets at once: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That makes your food line-up easier. We serve burrito bowls, burritos and tacos, and it suits sports club events and food and music festivals.
Near Ditchling, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food truck is a big help. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

The process
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. By late September, it is dark in Ditchling at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
