Mexican street food in Hyde, 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 are served quickly from the hatch. We serve burritos, loaded nachos and quesadillas, which works well for music and food festivals and county and country shows.
Summer fairs around Hyde are often run by volunteers, so we agree pitch, access and power with the organiser in advance. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Plan seating near the food area
- Check how traders handle peak times
On the day, we work with your site team on any changes.
Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Popular choices
Tacos
Street tacos suit a festival crowd.
Loaded nachos
Sharing nachos go down well.
For event organisers in Hyde
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

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. By late September, it’s dark in Hyde at around 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- We check your dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
How to prepare
- Find out what power and water are available
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
