Mexican street food in Norbury, from our food truck or trailer
The menu is agreed with organisers, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. On the menu are loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls, which works well for agricultural and county shows and outdoor screenings.
Street parties and school fairs in Norbury can be a great fit for a taco truck, once the road closure or site permission is in place. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Norbury: your questions answered
Do you come to school fairs around Norbury?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Where would you park in Norbury?
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.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What do you need at the pitch?
Send pitch details and we’ll confirm.
Do you do crew catering?
Yes, at set times to suit your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Step by step
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Summer events in Norbury have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we’re ready before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Getting ready for the day
