About our Mexican street food in Lower Haysden
The menu is agreed with organisers, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. At open days and community events and country shows, we will put together a menu of vegan tacos, burritos and quesadillas and more.
Rural events near Lower Haysden can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Questions from Lower Haysden
Can you trade at a school fair in Lower Haysden?
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.
Is it possible to have you in Haysden Country Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Is there a vegan option at your stall?
Yes. Vegan fillings such as spiced mushrooms or black beans are on the menu.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
How it works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Summer events in Lower Haysden have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- We check your dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.

Planning the serving area
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
- Trader information and site rules
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
Is Mexican street food right for your event?
For crew catering, sandwiches are easy but uninspiring. A hot meal keeps crew happy. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
