In Earley, a good food trader can make an event. Tacos, burritos and nachos cover meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans from one pitch. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Earley questions
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Earley?
Yes, if the school is happy and there’s access for the truck or trailer. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
How far is Earley from central London?
It’s about 36 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you run a bar at festivals?
Our drinks bar can be added where the event’s licensing allows. Licensing is checked with you first.

We cover London and the South East, including Wokingham. Find your area.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we’ll check availability.
Do you need power?
Let us know what the pitch has and we’ll confirm our needs. We confirm power and water with 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. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
The process
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. By late September, it is dark in Earley at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive

Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Book crew catering in advance
We keep in touch with your traders’ contact on the day.

What we offer in Earley
- Quoted for your event
- Menus chosen with you
- Options for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
- Served fresh from our food truck or trailer
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
- A level pitch on firm ground
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What Mexican street food costs
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- What the venue already provides
- Travel, parking and access
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
