How our Mexican street food works in Joyden's Wood
We slow-cook fillings ahead and finish them on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. At country shows and feeding crew and volunteers, we can serve vegan tacos, burrito bowls and burritos.
Events in Joyden's Wood range from street parties and school fairs to markets and festivals. Organisers normally need council permission for public spaces and road closures, and we’ll provide what the organiser asks for from us. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Joyden's Wood is about 3 miles south-west of Dartford, in Greater London. From the centre of Joyden's Wood to the outskirts, Mexican street food works the same way: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. We cover 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Joyden's Wood to London (about 12 miles away).

The process

- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we will 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.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
