Mexican street food in Sandy Cross, from our food truck or trailer
The menu is agreed with organisers, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. At festivals and summer fairs and fêtes, we can serve burritos, burrito bowls and quesadillas for your guests.
Rural events near Sandy Cross can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Questions from Sandy Cross
Could you serve in Aldershot 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 cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Will there be long queues?
Tell us expected visitor numbers and we’ll plan for peak times.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors, with allergen information for every dish.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
- Your trader pack and site rules
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
How we price Mexican street food
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Guest numbers
- Timings and hours
- What’s on the menu
- Distance and access to the venue
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Your date and when you want service to start
- What you’d like on the menu
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Diets and allergies you know about
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, send a quick message through our quote form.
