Mexican street food in Ridley, from our food truck or trailer
We slow-cook fillings ahead and finish them on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. It suits open days and community events and race days and sports events, serving burritos, vegan tacos and burrito bowls.
Rural events near Ridley can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Your questions about Mexican street food in Ridley
How far is Ridley from central London?
It’s about 21 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you come to school fairs around Ridley?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. 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.
Do you come to Ridley?
We do. We serve at events in Ridley and across Kent. Send us your date to check availability.
What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- A level pitch on firm ground
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. Summer events in Ridley have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, 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.
- On the day, we’re ready before the busiest hours.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
