Mexican street food in Elmers End, served fresh
Festivals can be bigger than our usual 50 to 400 guests, so share expected numbers and trading hours and we will plan around them. It suits open days and community events and food markets, serving loaded nachos, tacos and burrito bowls.
In Elmers End, a taco truck suits street parties and school fairs, once the road closure or site permission is in place. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Elmers End questions
Is parking a problem for events in Elmers End?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Elmers End?
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.
How much does Mexican street food cost in Elmers End?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you come to Elmers End?
We do. We serve at events in Elmers End and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Is there a vegan option at your stall?
Yes. Vegan fillings such as spiced mushrooms or black beans are on the menu.
Popular choices
Quesadillas
Crisp quesadillas.
Loaded nachos
Tortilla chips with cheese, salsa and toppings.

When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule.

- We agree what we will serve and where.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
