Mexican street food in Headley, served fresh
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders come out fast from the hatch. It works well for village fairs and crew and volunteer catering, with burritos, tacos and loaded nachos.
Rural events near Headley can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a picture of the space if you are unsure. Late-September events in Headley see sunset at about 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Preparing for the day
