How we price Mexican street food
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Serving staff
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- The menu you choose
- What the venue already provides
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- Your menu ideas
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many adults and children
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Step by step

By late September, it’s dark in Great Hampden at around 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
