Why choose Mexican street food in Mitcham?
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. Our fillings are ready to go, so orders are quick. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

How the day works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. By late September, it’s dark in Mitcham at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Mitcham is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Common questions in Mitcham
What about parking in Mitcham?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Is it possible to have you in Cranmer Green?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
