Mexican street food for your event in Oare
We slow-cook fillings ahead and finish them on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. It works well for school fairs and fundraisers and village fêtes and summer fairs, with tacos, quesadillas and burrito bowls.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
What’s on the menu
Burrito bowls
Easy to eat with a fork.

Step by step
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December market in Oare loses the light at about 4:00pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:25pm.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
How to get a price
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Common questions in Oare

Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Do you need water?
Send pitch details and we’ll confirm, including power and water.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Our drinks bar can be added where the event’s licensing allows. We’ll go through the licensing with you.

Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
