Mexican street food in Lane End, from our food truck or trailer
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 race days and sports events, with quesadillas, burritos and burrito bowls.
At a fête or field event near Lane End, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Lane End questions
Do you cater in villages like Lane End?
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.
Is Lane End close to London?
It is about 58 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
How spicy is the food?
It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.

Prices and what affects them
