About our Mexican street food in Heart's Delight
Festivals, fairs, markets and school fairs are all on our list in and around Heart's Delight. Popular choices include quesadillas, tacos and burritos, which works well for open days and community events and village fairs.
Rural events near Heart's Delight can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Where the truck can go in Heart's Delight
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Flat, firm ground
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Common questions in Heart's Delight
Do you come out to small places like Heart's Delight?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Is it possible to have you in Cromers Wood?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can you bring margaritas?
That depends on licensing. Let us know how alcohol is licensed at your event, and we’ll go from there.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can you handle a lunchtime rush?
Fillings are cooked ahead and kept hot, so orders are assembled quickly.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Check how traders handle peak times
- Share power and water details early
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
