Mexican street food in Hampton, 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. We serve burritos, burrito bowls and loaded nachos, which works well for sports clubs and race days and street food and farmers’ markets.
Around Hampton, a fête or summer fair suits a food truck. Send us the pitch and access details. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
How the day works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Summer events in Hampton have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- 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.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day

What Mexican street food costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Distance and access to the venue
- Timings and hours
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- What you’d like on the menu
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, use our quote form.
How it compares
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. With fillings prepared ahead, service is fast. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Common questions in Hampton
Which station is closest to Hampton?
The closest is Herne Bay station, roughly 1 mile away.
Is Hampton close to London?
It is about 52 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

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.

We do. We serve at events in Hampton and across Kent. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
