How our Mexican street food works in Park Wood
A taco stall covers many diets at once: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That makes your food line-up easier. For open-air performances and seasonal and night markets, we can serve loaded nachos, quesadillas and burritos for your guests.
In Park Wood, one trader covering most diets keeps it simple. A Mexican street-food truck can do that. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

How the day works

It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.

We cover London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.
When do you arrive?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.

We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.

We do. We serve at events in Park Wood and across Kent. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
