Your questions about Mexican street food in Lewisham
Can you trade at a school fair in Lewisham?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Could you serve in Ladywell Fields?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
What paperwork do you provide?
Share your trader requirements, and we will send what you ask for.
Can you run a bar?
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 will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you cover Lewisham?
Yes, we do. Lewisham is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Can you bring margaritas?
That depends on licensing. Let us know how alcohol is licensed at your event, and we’ll go from there.
