About our Mexican street food in Holmethorpe
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. People follow the smell of warm tortillas, and orders come out fast from the hatch. It suits street food and farmers’ markets and fundraisers and fêtes, serving tacos, burritos and loaded nachos.
Summer fairs around Holmethorpe are often run by volunteers, so we agree pitch, access and power with the organiser in advance. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
How the day works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. By late September, it’s dark in Holmethorpe at around 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- We check your dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
