Mexican street food in Lee
Mexican street food in Lee, served fresh
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. On the menu are burritos, vegan tacos and loaded nachos, and it suits street food and farmers’ markets and community events and open days.
For a village fête or field event near Lee, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
What’s on the menu

Bowls as a gluten-free choice.
Running an event in Lee
Lee is about 2 miles south of Romsey, in Hampshire. Give us the address of your event in Lee, and we’ll plan access and set-up. We serve in all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Rail travel is an option for visitors, as Romsey station is about 2.4 miles away. Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Oasis Academy Lord's Hill, a busy corner. Organisers near the New Forest National Park, within about 8 miles of Lee, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets. Seafront festivals and markets, with the coast within about 6 miles of Lee, need the organiser’s permission for traders. Send us the pitch details and we’ll check access.

Step by step
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Summer events in Lee have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.

Common questions in Lee
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Lee?
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.
Which station is closest to Lee?
Guests can use Romsey station, about 2.4 miles north of Lee.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we’ll let you know if we are available.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
