Your questions about Mexican street food in Fairlight
Can you trade at a school fair in Fairlight?
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.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Speckled Wood?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
What do you need at the pitch?
Send pitch details and we will confirm, including power and water.
What paperwork do you provide?
Share your trader requirements and we’ll respond.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Evening events in Fairlight have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.
- You send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
How to get a price
Send us the date, your venue or TN35 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just tell us about it on our contact page.

Where the truck can go in Fairlight
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Your trader pack and site rules
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Fairlight
- Quesadillas
- Burritos
- Burrito bowls
- Vegan options
- Loaded nachos
- Tacos
Organising for someone else?
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
A closer look at the menu
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, filling and toppings in a bowl.
Loaded nachos
Sharing nachos go down well.
Mexican street food or something else?
Some traders struggle with vegan and gluten-free visitors. Our menu includes vegan and gluten-free options. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
