Mexican street food for Lidsey events
What Mexican street food costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Parking and the route in
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Guest numbers
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Your menu ideas
- How we drive in and where we can park
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just use our quote form.
Mexican street food in Lidsey, served fresh
Festivals can be bigger than our usual 50 to 400 guests, so share expected numbers and trading hours and we’ll plan stock and service. It works well for festivals and sports club events, serving loaded nachos, tacos and burrito bowls.
A fête near Lidsey might be on a field with no mains power; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Late-September events in Lidsey see sunset at about 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We trade, then pack down.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Tell us what power and water the site has

Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

How it compares
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. With fillings prepared ahead, service is fast. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
