Planning an event in Laddingford?
The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not generally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Evening events in Laddingford have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Before we arrive
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

How our Mexican street food works in Laddingford
The menu is agreed with organisers, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. We serve tacos, loaded nachos and vegan tacos, and it’s a good fit for food markets and hospitality and crew areas.
At a fête or field event near Laddingford, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

How we price Mexican street food
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How many staff you need
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- The length of service
- Distance and access to the venue
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

Questions from Laddingford
How far is Laddingford from central London?
It’s about 30 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you come out to small places like Laddingford?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you send us your trader documents?
Share your trader requirements and we will respond.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
Yes. Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Your trader pack and site rules
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
