- Clear information on power, water and waste
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

How it compares
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. With fillings prepared ahead, service is fast. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Freemantle: your questions answered
Could you come to a seaside event near Freemantle?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you come to school fairs around Freemantle?
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 spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you need water?
Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we’ll confirm what we need. We confirm power and water with each booking.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send your requirements and we’ll respond with our documents.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.

How it works
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. Christmas markets in Freemantle trade in the dark from about 4:00pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:25pm.

- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Preparing for the day

Should I do it myself?
