Mexican street food for your event in East Wellow
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. It works well for race days and sports events and community days, serving vegan tacos, burritos and quesadillas.
At a fête or field event near East Wellow, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.

You can also see our page for Southampton, about 8 miles away.
Rail travel is an option for visitors, as Romsey station is about 3.6 miles away.

This part of Hampshire takes in SO51, so your event can be anywhere in it.

Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
What happens on the day
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. A December market in East Wellow loses the light at about 4:00pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
