How it works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. Christmas markets in Houghton Green trade in the dark from about 3:50pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:15pm.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we will serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.

Your questions about Mexican street food in Houghton Green
How far is Houghton Green from London?
About 51 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Can you serve near the sea around Houghton Green?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots generally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Do you need water?
Send pitch details and we’ll confirm.
Can vegans eat at your stall?
We do. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors, with allergen information for every dish.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will talk licensing through with you.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
How we price Mexican street food
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether you need disposables
- What’s on the menu
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
