What Mexican street food costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- What’s on the menu
- How many guests we’re serving
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and rough timings
The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we’ll put together a menu and price.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- A level pitch on firm ground
- Trader information and site rules
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Check how traders handle peak times
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Check allergen information is on display
- Plan seating near the food area
Allergen information is available at the hatch, and the menu shows vegan and gluten-free options.
Loaded nachos for sharing.
FAQs for Oakshott
Will you travel to a small place like Oakshott?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can we book you as a trader?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we’ll check availability.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can you feed our volunteers?
Yes. Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.

How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. At midsummer, events in Oakshott stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
Ask for a quote
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
Is Mexican street food right for your event?
