About our Mexican street food in Longlands
We agree a stall menu with you, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Popular choices include tacos, vegan tacos and loaded nachos, and it is a good fit for school fairs and fundraisers and food markets.
Street parties and school fairs in Longlands can be a great fit for a taco truck, once the road closure or site permission is in place. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

- What’s on the menu
- How many staff you need
- Food, drinks or both
- The number of people
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day

- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
