What Mexican street food costs

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Whether you need disposables
  • How many staff you need
  • How many guests we are serving
  • Timings and hours

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Questions from Monkhams

Which station is closest to Monkhams?

Guests can use Highams Park station, about 1.2 miles south-west of Monkhams.

Can you bring your truck or trailer to The Highams Park?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

How quickly can you serve?

Tell us expected visitor numbers and we will plan for peak times, so queues keep moving.

How long do you serve for?

It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.

Is there a vegan option at your stall?

We do. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors, with allergen information for every dish.

Can you serve alcohol at our event?

We can add our drinks bar if the event is licensed for it. We’ll go through the licensing with you.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.

Planning for every diet

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Feed crew and volunteers at set times
  • Tell traders about power and water before the day
  • Ask traders about packaging and waste
  • Ask traders about serving speed at peak times

At the end, we clear the pitch and leave it clean.

Alcohol-free aguas frescas.

What we need at the venue

We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:

  • A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
  • Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
  • Details of power, water and waste arrangements

In Monkhams, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
