Mexican street food for Ruscote events
About our Mexican street food in Ruscote
A Mexican food truck pulls a crowd at any outdoor event. People follow the smell of warm tortillas, and orders come out fast from the hatch. On the menu are loaded nachos, tacos and burrito bowls, which works well for village fêtes and summer fairs and crew and volunteer catering.
For events in a place like Ruscote, one hot-food trader that suits most diets makes life easy. Tacos and burritos can do exactly that. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

A fundraiser for a church like St Paul's Church Centre might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. A market or festival in People's Park would be licensed by whoever manages the park, and we’ll provide our part of the paperwork.

Common questions in Ruscote
Is Ruscote close to London?
It is about 67 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is it possible to have you in People's Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we’ll let you know if we’re available.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can vegans eat at your stall?
Yes. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Share vehicle access times with traders
- Share power and water details early
- Provide seating near the food
- Give traders a single information pack
Crew meals are served at set times.
Loaded nachos for sharing.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
