Mexican street food near Lower Burgate
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

We trade at festivals, fairs, markets, school fairs and community events. It works well for festivals and race days and sports events, serving quesadillas, tacos and burrito bowls.

Your questions about Mexican street food in Lower Burgate
Can you trade at a school fair in Lower Burgate?
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.
Will you travel to a small place like Lower Burgate?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Do you need power?
Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we’ll confirm what we need. Power and water are agreed with each booking.
Do you run a bar at festivals?
Our drinks bar can be added where the event’s licensing allows. Licensing is checked with you first.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Comparing your options
A single pizza or burger stall cannot cover every visitor. Tacos, burritos, bowls and nachos give choice. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

How it works
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. At midsummer, events in Lower Burgate stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 4:05pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- You send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Preparing for the day
