Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. Our fillings are ready to go, so orders are quick. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

How our Mexican street food works in Plashet
For festivals, numbers can be larger than most of our events, so tell us expected visitor numbers and trading hours and we will plan stock and service. At open days and community events and outdoor cinema and theatre nights, we can serve burritos, tacos and burrito bowls and more.
In Plashet, a taco truck suits street parties and school fairs, once permissions are sorted. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Perfect for your event in Plashet
Tacos and burritos are easy sells, so the stall trades steadily.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:

A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Barnabas might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer.

For planners, venues and organisers
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Plashet? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Step by step
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. Summer events in Plashet have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Give us your final numbers and diets

Your questions about Mexican street food in Plashet
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Plashet?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Could you serve in West Ham Park?
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’ll send what they need from us.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
Do you do crew catering?
Yes, timed to your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
How much does Mexican street food cost in Plashet?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a quote.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
In Plashet, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
We arrive in the agreed set-up window.
Margaritas and Mexican beer, subject to the event’s licence.
