Mexican street food in Southfleet, served fresh
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders come out fast from the hatch. At sports clubs and race days and school fairs and fundraisers, we can serve quesadillas, vegan tacos and loaded nachos.
For a village fête or field event near Southfleet, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- A level pitch on firm ground
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Summer events in Southfleet have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us what power and water the site has
