Mexican street food in Gunville, served fresh
A taco stall covers many diets at once: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That makes your food line-up easier. It works well for school fairs and fundraisers and country shows, serving burritos, burrito bowls and vegan tacos.
For a village fête or field event near Gunville, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Common questions in Gunville
Can you trade at a school fair in Gunville?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can you serve near the sea around Gunville?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can you feed our volunteers?
Yes. Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, the Isle of Wight included. Find your area.
Where the truck can go in Gunville
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
For somewhere as remote as Gunville, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
