Mexican street food in Nob's Crook, served fresh
The menu is agreed with organisers, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Popular choices include burrito bowls, burritos and tacos, which works well for food and music festivals and village fêtes and summer fairs.
For a village fête or field event near Nob's Crook, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Before you choose a spot
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- A level pitch on firm ground
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
