Mexican street food in Hankham, from our truck or trailer
We agree a stall menu with you, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. It works well for sports clubs and race days and food markets, serving loaded nachos, vegan tacos and quesadillas.
Near Hankham, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food truck is a big help. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
