How we price Mexican street food

- The length of service
- Distance and access to the venue
- What the venue already provides
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

- Where the event is
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Your date and when you want service to start

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Planning the serving area
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Trader information and site rules
In Richmond upon Thames, 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.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
- Plan seating near the food area
- Ask about peak-time capacity
Crew meals are served at set times.
Bowls as a gluten-free choice.
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, with allergen information for every dish.
