Mexican street food near Little Atherfield
How our Mexican street food works in Little Atherfield
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. People follow the smell of warm tortillas, and orders come out fast from the hatch. Popular choices include quesadillas, burrito bowls and tacos, and it is a good fit for open days and community events and race days and sports events.
At a fête or field event near Little Atherfield, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Space, access and the venue
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
Little Atherfield is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.

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 has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To get it right:
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Put all trader information in one pack
We keep in touch with your traders’ contact on the day on any changes.
Nachos for groups.
