Mexican street food in Great Bookham
Mexican street food for your event in Great Bookham
One Mexican trader covers several diets: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That makes your food line-up easier. On the menu are vegan tacos, loaded nachos and quesadillas, which works well for sports clubs and race days and food and music festivals.
Events near Great Bookham are often volunteer-run, so it helps to agree the pitch, power and water early. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Where the truck can go in Great Bookham
If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. Our fillings are ready to go, so orders are quick. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Common questions in Great Bookham
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Great Bookham?
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.
Could you serve in River Mole LNR?
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.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not generally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Is the food very hot?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Will there be long queues?
Fillings are cooked ahead and kept hot, so orders are assembled quickly.
What do you need at the pitch?
Send pitch details and we will confirm, including power and water.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. 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.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
