How we price Mexican street food
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:

- Serving staff
- Timings and hours
- What the venue already provides
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Expected numbers
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
Mexican street food in Lower Upnor, from our truck or trailer
We slow-cook fillings ahead and finish them on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. It works well for school fairs and fundraisers and open days and community events, with burritos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls.
For a village fête or field event near Lower Upnor, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. For an evening event in Lower Upnor, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- You get our stall menu, what we need at the pitch and the paperwork you request.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Can I do a taco night myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
How it compares
Some traders struggle with vegan and gluten-free visitors. We can serve vegan fillings and corn tortillas. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
