What else we do in Mortlake
Step by step
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Christmas markets in Mortlake trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, our pitch needs and the paperwork your event asks 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.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
Getting a price
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, tell us about it on our contact page.

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.

Yes, if the school is happy and there’s access for the truck or trailer. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will recommend how to serve.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.

Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
