Mexican street food in St Luke's
St Luke's questions
Where would you park in St Luke's?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Which station is closest to St Luke's?
Old Street station, in St Luke's itself.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What do you need at the pitch?
We will confirm our needs once we know the pitch details, including power and water.
Will there be long queues?
We plan stock and service around your expected numbers, so queues keep moving.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.

What happens on the day

Summer events in St Luke's 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.

Organising for someone else?

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Put picnic tables near the traders
If crew or volunteer meals are booked, they’re served at the agreed times.
A vegan filling on every menu.
