How our Mexican street food works in Hornchurch
We work to your trader pack and site rules, from arrival times to waste. We serve vegan tacos, loaded nachos and quesadillas, which works well for school and charity events and hospitality and crew areas.
Street parties and school fairs in Hornchurch can be a great fit for a taco truck, once the road closure or site permission is in place. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Step by step
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. A December market in Hornchurch loses the light at about 3:50pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
How to prepare
- Find out what power and water are available
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
How to get a price
Still deciding on the menu? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll suggest a menu. When you’re ready, tell us about it on our contact page.

Hornchurch events: pitches and permissions
Hornchurch is in Greater London. Whether your event is in the middle of Hornchurch or on the outskirts, Mexican street food works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Hornchurch is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we can bring Mexican street food. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Hornchurch to London (14 miles away).
Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Langtons Infant School, a busy corner. Thanks to the A125, we can bring the truck or trailer to Hornchurch without fuss.

Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Hot-cabinet food lacks appeal. Everything we serve is assembled to order. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Where would you park in Hornchurch?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.

Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
