Mexican street food near Kingsgate
Common questions in Kingsgate
Do you come to school fairs around Kingsgate?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Do you come out to small places like Kingsgate?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What documents can you send?
Tell us what the event needs and we will send the paperwork your event asks for.
Can you keep it mild?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Can you bring margaritas?
That depends on licensing. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we will check availability.
Do you need water?
Let us know what the pitch has and we’ll confirm our needs. We confirm power and water with each booking.
Do you have vegan options?
We do. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors.
How our Mexican street food works in Kingsgate
For festivals, numbers can be larger than most of our events, so tell us expected visitor numbers and trading hours and we’ll plan around them. Popular choices include burritos, tacos and vegan tacos, and it suits agricultural and county shows and outdoor cinema and theatre nights.
Rural events near Kingsgate can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Step by step
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. A December market in Kingsgate loses the light at about 3:50pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:15pm.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
