About our Mexican street food in Dunsden Green
We slow-cook fillings ahead and finish them on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. It suits music and food festivals and fundraisers and fêtes, serving burrito bowls, burritos and vegan tacos.
At a field event near Dunsden Green, power and water may be limited; tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
How the day works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Christmas markets in Dunsden Green trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:25pm.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.

Dunsden Green: your questions answered
Do you come to school fairs around Dunsden Green?
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.
Is Dunsden Green close to London?
It’s about 36 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run 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 talk licensing through with you.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can you bring margaritas?
Our drinks bar can be added where the event’s licensing allows. Licensing is checked with you first.
Organising for someone else?
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if it is a good fit.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
