Mexican street food for Ipsden events
Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times

How our Mexican street food works in Ipsden
A taco stall covers many diets at once: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That helps organisers balance the line-up. It works well for fundraisers and fêtes and food markets, serving vegan tacos, tacos and loaded nachos.
Near Ipsden, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Common questions in Ipsden
How far is Ipsden from London?
It is about 43 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Ipsden?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
Is there a vegan option at your stall?
We do. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
What affects the price in Ipsden
We quote for your event, which reflects:
- Parking and the route in
- Timings and hours
- Guest numbers
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your date and when you want service to start
- What power and water the site has
- The venue or postcode
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

What else we do in Ipsden
Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Hot-cabinet food lacks appeal. Our food is made to order. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What you get with us
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A plan agreed before the day
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
How it works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. Late-September events in Ipsden see sunset at about 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- We check your dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
