Mexican street food in Headley
Questions from Headley
Do you cater in villages like Headley?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Could you serve in Nower Wood?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Will there be long queues?
Tell us expected visitor numbers and we’ll plan for peak times, so queues keep moving.
Can you feed our volunteers?
Yes. We can cook for crew, volunteers or a hospitality area as well as, or instead of, a public stall.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How our Mexican street food works in Headley
We can trade to the public or cook for crew, volunteers and hospitality areas. It works well for seasonal and night markets and hospitality and crew areas, serving loaded nachos, quesadillas and vegan tacos.
For a village fête or field event near Headley, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Step by step
Here’s how the day usually runs: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. Christmas markets in Headley trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, our pitch needs and the paperwork your event asks for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Find out what power and water are available
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
