Planning an event in New Barnet?
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Why choose Mexican street food in New Barnet?
Tacos and burritos are easy sells, so the stall trades steadily.
Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. People in New Barnet can book us for occasions like:
- Hospitality and crew areas
- Agricultural and county shows
- Outdoor screenings
- Festivals
A market or festival in Victoria Recreation Ground would be licensed by whoever manages the park, and we will provide our part of the paperwork.

How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, it’s dark in New Barnet at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Planning help
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Spacing from tents and other structures
In New Barnet, 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.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
