Mexican street food for your event in Eastrop
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. It suits agricultural and county shows and street food and farmers’ markets, serving loaded nachos, quesadillas and burritos.
Summer fairs around Eastrop are often run by volunteers, so we agree pitch, access and power with the organiser in advance. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
The process
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. By late September, it is dark in Eastrop at around 7:10pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
How to prepare
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

How we price Mexican street food
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many guests we are serving
- Serving staff
- Distance and access to the venue
- Whether you add a drinks bar or 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.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Expected numbers
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Your menu ideas

Is Mexican street food right for your event?
For crew catering, sandwiches are easy but uninspiring. A hot meal keeps crew happy. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
What you get with us
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Allergen-aware menus
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests

FAQs for Eastrop
How far is Eastrop from London?
It is about 46 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Eastrop Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
Can you bring margaritas?
That depends on licensing. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, and we’ll go from there.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not usually stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.

Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Eastrop is within our area and the rest of Hampshire. To check your date, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
