Mexican street food in Shamley Green, from our truck or trailer
We agree a stall menu with you, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. On the menu are quesadillas, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, and it suits community days and street food and farmers’ markets.
Near Shamley Green, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food truck is a big help. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Burrito bowls
Easy to eat with a fork on the grass.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a filling, salsa and toppings.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

How we price Mexican street food
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Guest numbers
- Serving staff
- Distance and access to the venue
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- The address or venue name
- Your date and when you want service to start
- What you’d like on the menu
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
The process
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. Summer events in Shamley Green have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We trade, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Share the running order, including any speeches
